Even though it was still in operation, the company who brought this in knows that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. We replaced the seals, bushings, the drive, and gave it a complete teardown, clean, l**e, and paint. They were still out the door for $233.00.
Definitely worth not tearing up the ring gear in the equipment, having unscheduled down time, or ruining the starter by waiting to long.
