Excellent find, Joe.  By my calculation, that reduces the gear costs for 
a two-stage transmission from approx $93 to $36.  When combined with the 
$1 bearings that Steve found, the total cost of a transmission is now 
less than $50, and the total cost for a complete EV Warrior drive system 
is around $100!!!
