Default Reverse gearbox planetaries

Silentburner, did you find new planetary gears for your reverse gearbox or did you buy a complete new unit? My gears are in good shape but the short little shafts that they roll on is boogered up on the end and they will not stay inserted into the plate that is moved by the fork via the reverse cable . So when I switch to reverse it will eventually engage, but then when I disengage reverse, the 3 planetaries come out of the plate forward does not come back unless I take it apart and put it back the way it goes. It is a black gearbox. Will the silver I have seen work? The site that has them listed for $170 is on backorder. Only other place I found it they wanted $259. What is supposed to hold the short little shafts in that plate? Were there c clips or snap rings originally and they are just gone?
