Cou you post a picture of the damaged parts of the gearbox?

We played with a banebots P80 256:1 Gearbox for our Hanging Mechanism that was later distroyed. Apparently the motor was driven the wrong way and stalled against a stop for the arm for too long and I believe this stressed the carrier plates inside of the gearbox, but I'm not entirely sure. I'll have to crack it open next time I'm in the shop and see.
