Here's a prime example why I've ALWAYS strongly recommended replacing this part during a rebuild on this forum for more than a decade.
This outfit has 33 of them in stock. Be sure to replace the lower o-ring along with the clutch washers while you're in there. Also, check the shaft in the upper transmission housing. It should turn smoothly with little effort. CLICK HERE TO GO TO qsd-dan's LINK |

Like I stated above, before you move on make damn sure the shaft in the upper trans housing smoothly turns with ease. DO NOT go any further in the resto without confirming this! If it does operate smooth, turn the housing upside down on a level surface, fill the shaft oil gallery with trans oil and let it soak in for a day or so while giving the shaft an occasional turn. This will help lubricate the upper sleeve bearing.
Your parts list looks complete. Check the filter screens in the water valve. If either one is plugged or plugging up, you may want to add that to your list. There's no need to purchase a lug stop, those rarely fail, and if it does, it's easy to access. POR-15 is a product that most here have had success for rust issues. I don't have have first hand experience with it though. |

That bearing surface of the shaft looks to be in perfect condition (unless you cleaned it up) so the upper bearing itself should be fine.
You could use the Amazon gear and carefully drill your own hole for the pin once the pinion gear and clutch washers are in place and the screw is cinched up nice and tight. All it does is prevent the screw from backing out. |

I'd say buy the gear off ebay without the hole and drill one yourself. They are probably old stock, prior to Maytag changing the part to have the holes pre-drilled. Number 34 drill looks to be a 0.1110 drill.
Wouldn't hurt to ask the seller if they have any with the pre-drilled holes. Ben

Before you send it back, did you try marking the offending teeth, then rotating the plastic gear 180 degrees on the shaft?
If it's the same (marked) teeth that bind, you would confirm that it is the plastic gear at fault. If it binds in a different spot, it would indicate that the metal shaft isn't straight (or wasn't machined on center). I certainly wouldn't expect the metal shaft to be the problem, but it might be worth double-checking, since that seller appears to be the only plastic gear source available... |

Steven - I was digging in the attic this afternoon and ran across a few used but good pinion gears. If the supplier you found ends up not having any let me know and you’re more than welcome to one of these.
