Each for ten bucks, each one found at a different thrift store. The brushroll bearings in the Kenmore were pretty sticky but after some cleaning and oiling it turned out great. The Elite 200 had a cracked fan case (had a used one in the store room) and the plastic, half circle retainer that holds the belt end of the motor to the base was broken so I had to order a new one of those.

and good find, those early Elites had a lovely issue of breaking fan cases! my Elite 350 completely severed the plastic mounting bracket from the rest of the fan plate! surprised
