87 4000 Power antenna fix needed



My power antenna does not go up, so i took it apart, cleaned and lubed 
the mast, but that wasn't the problem, atlthough i think it caused the 
problem.  The motor runs but the antenna doesn't go up because the 
plastic gear inside the motor housing is stripped in one spot.  I have 
been to the local wrecking yards to locate a motor but they didn't have 
the same antenna.  They had power antennas that were all one piece (mast 
and motor), where mine has two pieces.  Does anyone know if the gear 
wheel is available or am i looking at a new antenna or motor all 
together?  I would like to find the same antenna with a toasted motor so 
i can steal the gear out of it?  Any ideas?  Any body have a bad antenna 
they want to part with?

Thanks
sm
