Need help offsetting two parts in assembly

Hi guys, I'm relatively new to inventor and I am trying to make a single spur gear speed reducer for fun. I've modeled my gears and rotated around with teeth (and I screwed up the teeth by forgetting to make them involute and now I can't go back but oh well) and I have constrained my gears, shafts, and bearings so that they spin in line with each other but my gear teeth are overlapping a bit when they spin. This would be a non issue if I had made the teeth involute but I cannot go back and change the rotate without re-doing the entire project. Is there a way I can offset my two gears from each other? If I could offset by a millimeter or two I don't think the teeth would noticeably overlap anymore. Any help is appreciated!
