Does SPI sell worm gears?

Don't really have my SPI catalog by me at the moment, but that would seem like one possible solution, instead of using bevel gears. Plus, unless my thinking is totally off this morning, if you could get reverse threaded ones, you woudn't have to worry about flipping the motors on each side of the robot. The only downside would be the extra friction inherent in a worm drive. You'd need lots of lube. Hmm, plus, worm drives aren't very back drivable, so you'd have to traing the drivers not to stop too suddenly. Still, it's a thought. Any problems that I've missed?
