Re: Dewalt gearboxes?

We used a dewalt this year for our lift, the anti backdrive is great. I would never want to use one in a drive-train after seeing the innards of it, the only thing that makes it durable enough is the metal casing that comes with the drill. The gearbox itself while durable enough to be used in a high power system, would not handle shock loading well without the outer case.
