My pulleys and the chain link thrust bearing have rusted significantly. I tried painting the pulleys and have also slathered the thrust bearing in rust prevention lubricant but it has not worked. Any advice on what does work is appreciated.

Yeah the pulleys on mine are rusting while the actual mount is not.

Subject: Re: [electricboats] 1984 C&C 29' Sailboat - 2015 Electric Thunderstruck Motor - FloridaWhat I found interesting was to note which components of the T'struck system were rusting and which weren't. T'struck recommends painting all the non-stainless steel parts in the datasheet packed with their reduction units. But they're not specific as to whether or not that should include the pulleys. From the photos of this boat, it appears that they should be! [And ohmigosh ... mildew on the stainless motor mount plate? Really sad photos.]
