It seems to be pressed into the PSRU housing fairly solid. The sun gear has been turned down to be a perfect fit for the rest of the bearing surfaces. If I swapped out just the planet gears on an 8 year old gear set, is there any chance that the teeth will mate properly? I know Tracey had some problems with that on some gears he recieved, and they were presumably made at the same time. I think I should order a set and see how closely it matches.
