I know it's a little early but I'm celebrating!
I stripped my gear & CW sent me TWO (both).

I did the remove/install. Use a 10mm socket on the top side panel bolts.
I think the most important tip I can give is BE SURE to ck that the gears are meshing properly DURING your install (move 'em a little). Ck BEFORE tightening down all the screws. BTW, there was NO screw in the "gear hole", so I proceeded without it. It works great. Be sure to grease the gears. You DO have to take the "belly pan" off to get to the motor.
Also, I downloaded the photos so I could view them off line.
And don't drop the tiny motor screws and spend ten minutes looking for it like I did!!
