Nema size of stock MK2S stepper motors?

Hey all,

I am getting some serious overheating issues from my stepper motors. I want to download and print a motor cooler mount. I see a bunch for nema 17 motors. Is that the size of the stock motors?

Yes, they are NEMA 17

What makes you think you are having overheating problems? They are designed to run reasonably hot.

My motor on the x-axis is very hot to the touch. More so then the others. And I seem to be getting a layer shift at about the 5th layer up, sometime in the middle of the print, which appears to me to be caused by missing a step. It was suggested to me to cool the motor.
