I've measured (in the CAD model) and I found that it the front of the gearbox it has a two stepped hex 7/16" to capture a nut and then 0.5 for the stand offs to fit in for the third stage design. The back of the gearbox is just 7/16" for the nuts, unless we are talking about different parts of the gearbox.
I wonder if VEX will sell the brackets separately that way we could just buy a couple extra, bolt them on top and then put a piece of plate across that. It wouldn't be the lightest option but it would be dead simple for teams to implement.
