Spyder top motors

[spyderdrifter]

Ok, I've read several posts that came up in my searching, but can't find an answer. I pulled my driver side top motor out to check the little split pins that hold the drive gear on to see if it's broken. It doesn't appear to be so, but I'm not positive. The pin is in the hole, and protrudes on both sides of the gear. How can I tell if it's in fact broken? I got a 3/32 punch and tried hammering it to push out the pin, but no luck. Anyone got info on this specific issue. All I need is to know how to tell if it's broken. Thanks.

Well, disregard my initial posting here, just confirmed it's broken, in 3 pieces. Since there's not a lot of info on this topic as far as what I'm going through, I might just add my own write-up with the pics I'm taking so there's more detail for other Spyder owners.

U might as well do the other side well ## in there since usually one side breaks and puts more strain on other side

Mines working good, but it would be good for future ref, if it ever does break.
