Having issues with your convertible top mechanism drive gears?

If the offer is still up, I would love to do a faq on this! Just so happens, both of my gears on my 2001 Boxster S need replacing! They "jump" and top gets out of alignment, also causing extra stress on motor. All else appears in good working order. Please let me know either way! I was looking at Pelican to order these, but it shows out of stock on the right side one. Thank you both, Jeff and Mark

Any update ? Curious; how common is it for the gears needing replacement.
