Did you consider disassembling the motor, measuring and replacing the bearings? Has anyone else done it or is planning to? I am planning to replace my cracked dash with a mint one, a logical time to do the blower motor work.
You can get bearings at Granger.com
I have been without a functional motor for years, driving around with your window down as a defroster in the winter really toughens you up for those cold workouts in the unheated garage.

- The worst thing was, I didn't even have a new B.motor. All I could do was lube it with some LPS! [140-160]

    - LPS.. light penetrating solvent? Says LPS on the can I spray it on my Bridgeport so it won't rust. Doesn't evaporate. [140-160]
