Oh Noes! Seems to be a typical problem with these games, I was cleaning the steering controller and I noticed this:

See the cracks on the B gear? Here is what I see when turning the wheel:

Best quick fix for that is a coolant hose clamp tightened on the end of the gear as tight as you can get it. B gears can be found new for around $50,some want $100. You have to look very,VERY thoroughly to find them.

Thanks! I forgot to mention that I searched KLOV and found out that Steve23 (who hasn't been on here for a long time) has reproduced these in metal. I got in touch with him and bought a repro so it should last for a long time.

I found an online vendor that had the C gear for really cheap. I'll post back if I actually get it. Also picked up the A gear. Might as well bulletproof it while I have it apart.
