Inspect all the gearboxes, assess which ones show signs of distress and note their running hours then adjust the TBO for the MRGB downwards across the fleet appropriately - replacing the epicyclic stages on condition.

Expensive? yes but not as bad as redesigning the whole box or scrapping the fleet.
