It would be helpful if you gave a little more information, like brand names and model numbers. There is a dealer who operates an RV scrap yard. It is Colaw RV Parts & Salvage 10389 Cimarron Rd. Carthage MO Phone 417 548 2125 or E mail colawrvsalvage.com These folks have a huge field of RV,s they get parts from.It is quite likely they will have what you want or a substitute

Harvey..many thanks for your imput..have called Bluebird, Suburban(the mfg), and your Salvage Yard in Mo..apparently they quit making this model sometime ago(so what else is new), and although some motors are still available, this particular one has offset shafts..and Colaw did not have that type..so, unless by some miracle, someone comes up with the right one, I'll be forced to spend the money for a new furnance..
Happy Holidays

I have a couple of old (dead) furnaces from that era, are you sure it is an NT-12 and not an NT-16? I think that the ones I have are NT-16s (16,000 BTU) which were the standard furnace. I'll check.

Anyway, email me with your shipping info and I'll try to pull a motor out around the middle of next week if they're the same model (or will work), just pay for shipping and I'm happy.

Otherwise, the current furnaces are pretty much a drop-in fit (close anyway), and some "scratch and dent" stuff can be found for much less money, www.ronthebusnut often has some.

I needed to replace our mid unit. I was able to use the unit that Suburban now offers with their exhaust and intake extension units. They come in 2 or 3 different sized so measure before you order. You're stuck with the shortie that comes with the new unit and the old one wouldn't work im my case. The only comment I can make is that the new unit is quite a but louder than the old one.
