The spider gears in my 8.25 lost several teeth a few days ago. Upon disassembly, it looks like there was damage beforehand- the pin had some pretty extreme wear and the splined axle gears took some effort to pull out of the carrier. It took several hours of hammering to get the pin itself out.
I'm planning on replacing them with a lunchbox locker and was wondering how much the damaged carrier surfaces can affect the locker as far as wear and longevity? I know it isn't going to be anywhere near ideal, but there shouldn't be very much movement with this type of locker.
