Moving parts after Placement

I created a GearAssembly.  It consists of a hub and an 80 tooth gear.  Made a motor assembly and put the gear assembly on the shaft of the motor.  I need to move the gears down the shaft toward the motor.  I am wondering how I do this?  When I put my motor in the assembly with the wheels and C-Channel part, the gear on the motor is in the wheels.  I need to slide it down the motor shaft to match with the gears on the wheels.

Thanks for any help.

    This should be a simple adjustment of the sub-assembly containing the gear. However, the change could impact other assemblies if is it used in them. To make the change, just open the sub-assembly containing the gear and edit the definition of the gear component. This will let you add an offset along the shaft length if it does not exist already.
