The other was the '90 Z headlight motor nylon gear, rotated after dis-assembly, and finding it cracked, while waiting for the new nylon gear in the mail.

The new gear is on the shelf, while the rotated cracked gear is still working for 5 months now. The GMC CC module is still on with the cracked gear, for 3 years.
But....this is the actuator on the Bilstein Shock.......which is completely different
