If you notched the tray a little more it the bevel drive could accomodate a single large spur, and the pinion could be moved inboard on the motor.

Also I was wondering if there are any belt drive options that would work here? Just for motor-to-bevel drive. You mentioned you want to keep it stock looking-ish lol. I just hope you aren't limiting yourself as far as reliability?

Hey, thanks for the input... I wondered why only that gear was worn... The guy I bought it from used a 24T gear.. it's suppose to be a 25T... I just read it on website a few minutes ago... I will give it a few more shots with the plastic gears, but I will be getting the alloy motor and center differential mount...
