I did tear apart a few of the motors, but I didnt take pictures of them. I'm not sure, but the gears did look fairly standard. You might have a bit of trouble modifying the ratios, since alot of them have all the gears stacked up on one side of the gearbox. Thats a good question.

I'm curious as to whether they use different gears, or more stages of some "standardized" gear sets. For instance, can I buy a high gear ration motor like 38-023 and remove gears as appropriate for my app (changing the gear ratio on my own)? Or can I get enough gears from a high-ratio motor to make several lesser gear-ratio motors (using my own motors)? Did you compare internals of gear motors with several different gear ratios?
