Did not solve the problem. I am on the verge of losing patience on solving this. Any suggestions or helps rendered is much appreciated.
I have had that problem, where only 2nd spur gear strips.. One day I stripped 6 2nd gears. I was using 20T / 25T.

I went back to stock 20T / 24T and never stripped again.

My 2nd gear spur also has a slight wobble, but works perfectly with the stock pinions but not with 25t pinion.
