WTB: Reverse Diamond Drive

Looking for a Reverse Diamond Drive for my 2007 M1000. Would prefer any low mileage M8 take off to do the regear in one shot. Any Diamond Drive in great shape with pictures will be considered. Located in Canada and require item to be sent via USPS.
 
The main gears are actually fine. My problem is with the electric reverse not fully engaging and disengaging and it caused the teeth on the outside of the spider assembly to round off into a pointy diamond shape and cause grooves in the casing. Now it doesn't seem to shift properly and has even popped outta gear while riding a couple times with the horrible grind of death not stopping until you kill the motor. I'm just lucky I got it back to the truck and don't want to take a chance of it blowing up in the bottom of a valley or half way back up the same hill I dropped in! I plan on selling the sled after this season, so I really don't want to invest more money than I need to. Just don't want to sell it this way either....
 
Looks like the inside case has grooving and the spider gear assembly has damaged teeth where they mesh with the cage assembly. Just simpler and more reliable to me to replace the entire assembly and try out the lower M8 gearing at the same time for one or two last trips of the season before it gets sold at the begining of next season. Worst case senario I will take the DD off the new sled when I buy it and the new owner won't have reverse. Just trying to find a decent enough deal on a DD at close to the end of the season. Will jump on a deal too good to pass on a M1000 assembly however. Few offers out there, all pm's returned. Thanks for all the interest so far everybody! :beer;
