I used the instructions where they were originally posted: MZ5n mirror blocked, service manual? - Page 4 - PentaxForums.com starting at comment 51.

I think my daughter's ZX-7 just blew out it's plastic gear, so I'll be doing it again.

If you’re still monitoring this could you supply/post the gear specs or supplier? Thks. A small collection of various different now defunct MZs could form a repair production line!

You don’t still have the gear spec by any chance?

I ordered mine from the link Not a Number gave above. Thanks for posting the links.

Make sure you enter all the correct numbers when ordering. The MZ-S is the one Pentax body I'd really like to own which I haven't tried yet. I would love to buy one with a grip in great condition but haven't found the right one yet.
