you looked into getting some stuff cryo'd while it is apart? should pick up at least a little bit of strength and it is sorta cheap to get done.

Cryotreating really isn't worth it. I wouldn't expect any noticeable gains from cryo-treating a set of gears.

As I've said before, cryo-treating benefits are directly related to the material being cryo-treated. As a general rule of thumb, the softer the metal, the greater benefits you'll see. The harder the metal, like gears, the fewer benefits you'll see.
