Review on 🔧 High-Quality Drive Gear Kit for Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore Trash Compactor - Lifetime Appliance 882699 by Mike Stevenson

The large pinion gear is smaller in diameter than the OEM gear which means the teeth do not fully mesh (as shown in the video Larry Snow uploaded). I found that there was enough play in the motor mounting holes to easily adjust the motor so the gears were fully engaged. If you don't make this adjustment, the gears will most likely break. I can only hope that the gears will last as long as the original gears (10 years). I'll try to update this review if the gears fail prematurely.
