Hi Frank,
I had the same problem with my FMS P40, being 90 degree rotating servoless retracts the worm drive takes the full impact of landing the aircraft and they are certainly not up to the task in opinion. So when mine failed I locked them in the down position while I investigated an alternative. I certainly wasn't paying the price for inferior FMS replacement parts but with the help of one of our members who frequents the cyber he put me onto Philip Workwshop.
Have a look at these retracts, they maybe a drop in solution.
