Hope someone can help. I need a rotisserie motor mount for a genesis xooo. The one I have on me E320 has about a 3"-4" set back from the fire box I need the one that's about 2" set back. I have a basket style rod that holds two chickens perfectly.
The problem is with the 3"-4" set back the lid won't close because it hits the handle on the left side of the firebox.
Don't care if it's rusty or whatever, if you have one please let me know I'll gladly buy it from you and of course pay for your time and shipping.

Thanks
Rich
 
I prob have one.

Edit. I've got this one, yet it's 3 to 4 inch setback.

Yah, what Dan has is the standard Weber roto mount bracket. But it is more than two inches from the cook box.
 
That's a common problem with Weber roti stuff*, I've found...little or no interchangeability. I think it would be a better idea to buy a longer spit rod...you don't want to get the motor too close to the firebox for fear of overheating it. But good luck on your quest to rotisserie nirvana! (y)

* EDIT: by that I mean, my Weber kettle roti won't fit my x000/Silver C (too short), and the Weber roti for the gassers won't fit the kettle (journals not in the right place). Check your journal distance before you buy, or grind a new journal.

Find a used #9890 roto. I have two or three of them. I grab them when I see them cheap while searching for rehab candidates.
 
Thanks for all the information and offers.
Bruce, thanks for the info on the 9890. I did find some and they all had the wider bracket. I checked my Gen 2000 and I forgot it has a 9890 roti kit and it's bracket is the wider version also.
I guess I was just delusional thinking there was a shorter version.
Dan, thanks for digging up the one you had, appreciate that.

Here's the roti I'm using works great for two chickens.

RIch, that is the #9891 Weber roto. I run that one as well as the #9890 on my grill. They both use the same motor and bracket.

Bruce, was it you that recommended using wing nuts on that? I still need to pull Mi e off and replace those, nicer idea than leaving it on to get a crud build up. One of these days…
 
Oh, I think you mean on the bracket mount. No, I don't think that was me. I might swap out the factory nuts and bolts with some regular hex SS hardware though. I am too lazy to be removing the bracket after every cook.
