A few points Guest:-

1) Get a proper logon with CR4 and your own Nom de plume.

2) Use the spelling checker to make your English better

3) Do not use a forum that has nothing to do with your wishes, this is for a missing or broken gear in a garage door opener, start your own blog

4) Explain what you are looking for much, much better than you have....

5) tell us your native language as we may have someone who can contact you "offline" and help you in your own language, rather than you struggling with English.....

Try eBay and search Google by model and part number of the gear itself.

Measure all the important dimensions, then go to www.mcmaster.com. and search for 'worm gear'

On the other hand, if the gear is worn out you may well find it better just to buy a whole new opener, as some other things like the bearings and phase capacitor are probably ready for replacement as well.

At Sears I have found that the service/parts people really don't know what they are searching for. For example, you will have given them the part number for the gear and they will just do a search on that part number. Did this with some lawnmower parts I needed. I got them to look up another parts diagram for a similar model and got the part number for the part I was looking for. They brought it out from the back and it matched up perfectly. Try this for the gear, look up a similar garage door model with the same horsepower rating and get the part number for that gear. If they have it in stock, get them to bring it out to you and check dimensions.
