Order the correct-sized motor for your freezer using the drop-down boxes.
The Immergood 8-qt motor will not fit Immergood 4, and 6-qt freezers, nor will the 4, and 6-qt motors fit the 8-qt freezers.
The Immergood 8-qt will also not fit the old White Moutain 8-qt.
Immergood does offer an adapted motor to fit the 3/8" dasher stem on the newer Country and Lifetime freezers as well as the older White Mountain freezers. It is recommended to order and change the tub latch on the Country freezers for the Immergood freezer to secure down. Lifetime freezers offer a similar cam latch to the Immergood and it doesn't necessarily need to be changed.
We also carry a White Mountain Economy Replacement Motor Click Here for more information.
Immergood motors replace newer Dark Green and Dark Brown White Mountain 4 and 6 qt electric motors fitting on an 11-5/8 diameter tub, a 7/16" dasher stem, and a 1" square top on the freezer can lid. (Actual size of the freezer can lid drive will be 15/16") (The motor gear frame openings are sized larger to slide over the top without binding). This is the same with Immergood motors. Making them interchangeable. (See notes below about the Appalachian series tub ears and tub latches)
Some of the older cream color motors depending on when they were made will still interchange with the Immergood motor as long as the tub diameter is 11-5/8" with a 7/16” dasher stem and a 1" square can lid top. You may want to upgrade to the Immergood tub latch and tub ear. See more below on those selections.
Older White Mountain freezers prior to 1970 with the cream color motor may have a 3/8" dasher stem. If the freezer tub is still 11-5/8" in diameter and the square top on the can lid is 1" you can order the adapted motor for a 3/8" dasher stem. You may want to upgrade to the Immergood tub latch and tub ear. See more below on those selections.
If you determine that you have a 3/8” dasher drive but your tub is smaller or larger in diameter, or the can lid is a different size, then this motor will not work on your freezer. This motor will not fit older White Mountain freezers larger or smaller than the 4-6 qt models.
If you order the 3/8" drive and later you decide that you want to upgrade to a complete Immergood freezer, you will be able to send the motor back to the factory and have the 7/16” gear exchanged at a small labor and return shipping cost.
If you are replacing a dark green motor on tub models with an 11-5/8" tub other than the Appalachian series, the Immergood motor should fit your tub latch and ears with little to no adjustment. If your tub measures closer to 11-1/2" the bucket may just be dried out and will expand to 11-5/8" once it swells back. If not the tub ear and tub latch will likely need to be shimmed out to spread the tub latch and tub ear out to 11-5/8" as the motor will not easily fit between 11-1/2" space. If they are riveted those will need to be drilled out and replaced with a bolt and nut. We recommend replacing them with the Immergood tub latch and tub ear with stainless steel bolts and nuts. Shims can be cut from scrap plastic that is around 1/16" thick. We found that cutting the shims from the side of a 5-gallon plastic bucket worked perfectly.
If you are replacing an Appalachian series motor or an older cream-color motor on an 11-5/8" tub, we do recommend replacing at least the tub latch and better yet matching the tub ear with the Immergood brand. If your bolts and nuts are still in good condition you shouldn’t need new ones, but they are also available using the drop-down box.
If you already have the Immergood replacement tub ordered specifiaclly for a White Mountain motor, you will also need to order and replace the modified tub ear on your tub for this new motor to fit and latch down.
One of the chief complaints of the White Mountain tub latches in later years was that they were not made well or held the motor down. The Immergood motor is a much taller and heavier motor, and the new latches will serve you well with little to no adjustments for the new motor to fit. Some of the later Appalachian series White Mountain freezers had a little different tub ear and tub latch that may require replacement or if not then modification to fit the wider tabs on the Immergood motor.
Here's a video on how to install the tub ears:
Up to this point, ice cream freezers and electric motors only spun the freezer can around a stationary dasher, known as a double action. Compared to a hand crank freezer where the dasher spins in one direction and the freezer can spin in the opposite direction, known as a triple-action mode. The Immergood motor does this triple-action for smoother ice cream.
The powerful, efficient motor is much quieter than previous White Mountain Motors. Immergood is no longer using the confusing dial to hardness knob thus, the motor should be shut off when the desired hardness is reached. After timing a few batches using the same salt and ice mixture each time, you should be able to go by the time and the sound to reach your preferred hardness levels. The motor does have overload and overheat protection should you forget to check it.
The high-speed motor is imported to custom specs. Everything else from the housing, gears, electronics, and freezer parts are all USA Amish manufactured using stainless steel. The Amish do not subscribe to planned obsolescence, so they build things to last over corporate profits. This makes them more expensive, but well worth the long-term investment if you are a serious homemade ice cream family.
