Ernest,
I'm not sure what problem you are referring to.  I do not recall anything relating to gear compatibility in my development.

Kelly,
I don't think I can replace the outer portion of the gear (I believe
it's call the housing, sun, planet and housing?).  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.
