Alts
No I wouldn't worry - alts are pretty good at lasting and you have just replaced the one thing that can go (regulator and brushes). Bearings do go, but rarely. If you get the chance to pick up the right spare for 20 or 30 quid then do it for peace of mind - trouble with this philosophy is that you end up with a spare everything and need a warehouse to store it all!

What motor?
Rob - what kind of lump have you got? (not much info in your profile!) - if you have an Aircooled I have a spare spare you could have for a suitable adjustment of beer tokens - let me know
