First set of gears had zome kind impurity inclusion in the gear right near a tooth, littlemachineshop was super fast to make it right, didn’t ask any questions or waste any time shipping a replacement, in fact by the time I went to see if I had gotten a response from them, the replacement arrived that same day. Overall great relations and quality product. Well worth the money spent upgrading from those plastic gears from original
