We had to add some gearbox mounting holes and bearing holes in the chassis at one end, because we cut ours to a non-standard length.

We understand the limited budget
Hey Doug! Just for future reference, it's spelled mecanum. It's an easy mistake to make. How did the custom bearing holes work out? Did you have to switch to chain due to the difference center to center?
