You will have seen me whitter on in other posts about Life-Like power bogies and trying to keep my Life-Like train set series diesels running. I was recently in touch with Walther's who sent me this very helpful reply, which I share in the hope that this news may be of benefit to others:
Thank you for contacting Walthers regarding your Life-Like parts inquiry.
The traction tires for the Like-like F7, F40PH, & GP38-2 locomotives is Walthers part number 922-584015. There are (12) traction tires to a package and they sell for $3.00 per pack plus shipping and handling, as well as any applicable taxes or freight costs.
We do not sell just the brushes for the Life-Like Trains motors. The complete motor is Walthers part number 922- 584005. This item sells for $10.00 per motor, plus shipping and handling, as well as any applicable taxes or freight costs.
An order through Walthers, for this item, can be done by phone, mail, or fax, but not through our website. You may call us, toll-free, at 1-800-487-2467.

I hope that this explains the ordering process for these parts and I thank you for choosing Walthers for your service needs.
Needless to say an order has been placed. This is very much as case of get in quick as none of these items are being made any more...

Incidentally, although Walther's don't supply brushes and springs, those suitable most 1970s, 80s and 90s, Hornby or Lima power bogies will fit and do the job well!
