For anyone still interested, replaced the motors with OEM and that has fixed my problem. Thanks everyone for all of your inputs!!

I'll bet they draw slightly over fla stamped on the side of the motor. Most of the Aaon condenser fan motors I see run well into the service factor.

Yea, they did! FLA was 2.0 however i was pulling 2.2. I noticed the motor was also considerably larger (depth) than the A/M's. I figured it must be more run windings. Also, I noticed it was open-type motor (ahu motor) but with a rain guard that doubles as a ventilator for the motor windings. (Fixed Centrifugal fan blades)
What a bunch of BS!!
It's hard to stop a Trane - Until you apply line voltage to it!!
