Motor assemblies and methods for a push-pull torch are disclosed. An example method includes: rotating a mechanical component about a first axis in a welding torch using a drive motor aligned with the first axis; and feeding a welding wire through the welding torch via a first feed roll and a second feed roll, wherein the first feed roll is operatively coupled with the mechanical component, the first and second feed rolls define a plane through which the welding wire passes, and the plane is generally parallel to and offset from the first axis.
