Re: Mounting mecanum wheels... please help?
We have cantilevered the wheels off the transmissions with no problems.

We have used Toughbox mini's 12.75:1 with 8" wheels. That's what we plan to use this year. Seem to work OK.

Normally you have to run some rod from the transmissions on one side to the ones on the other side to stabilize the whole setup.
