I just had one of my motors rebuilt because it wouldn't turn one way. The guy that rebuilt it said he found a broken wire and resoldered it, but even after new brushes and turning the commutator on the lathe he said it ran really hot and not to expect too much more life out of it. Oh, well, only cost $40 vs. $110 for a new rebuilt one. Maybe your motors are dying on you because they're just too old, like mine. You may have to bite the bullet and get a better rebuilt one from the parts houses that has some sort of warranty.
