The motor is pretty small. I was going to try Home Depot and grab a plastic storage bin and pad the motor inside of one of those if I can find one that will hold up to the trip in both directions.
I will probably use that foam insulating spray inside a plastic trash bag to make a custom fit pad to protect the motor. I ordered a replacement rim for my Explorer once and the new rim came sandwiched between two trash bags filled with foam insulation. The bags contained the foam, but the foam formed perectly around the part and once it hardened, it protected the new wheel. The same should work great with the motor.
My only concern is finding a container that will stand up to the round trip.
