And I dont have any pictures of the gearboxes right now, but when we dont have the belts attached they don't do it. And they are standard WCP SS WCD versions. What in the transmission could cause a pop, unless something is snapping?
Sounds like it's in the belts then. Is the gearbox in the middle? Is there any significant resistance when you turn the gearboxes by hand?
