I couldn't see anything on the website that mentioned resolvers but didn't ask either, just took it that didn't accept them.

Yes but it's not so easy with the way it's built. The cover is designed for round type motor with no room for Encoder and Motor wire connecters modern square type motors tend to have fitted.
Also Iike the DC motors that are fitted I suspect the shaft size will be smaller than AC servo shafts so the coupler will need to be machined etc.

That said I will be taking it apart to have a look.
