Re: Custom bushings

You could try using a set up like 1640 uses for their swerve drive. It can support huge amounts of weight and take a good hit. Its also pretty compact. Just mount it upside down? It uses a thrust bearing to handle the axial loads and a very large bearing to handle radial loads.
