Re: Gearbox Design Feedback

Thanks to all the helpful pointers you guys gave me, I have come up with a v2.

Link to model: https://grabcad.com/library/drivebox-2-1



-4 Standoffs instead of 6
-Front output shaft bearing is flipped to eliminate need of retaining the bearing
-Simpler structure?

I plan to mount this in an unorthodox way. The bottom two standoff bolts are combined as mounting bolts an the bottom CIM mounting holes on the front plate is tapped to seve as another set of mounting holes. Good idea or a dreadful mistake?
