The modules should be able to be installed as a complete assembly. They were designed to be put together outside the robot then slide into place. The only parts that might need to be assembled while on the robot are the pneumatics and the drive axles directly off the gearbox.
On a different note after some feedback from my team today there are a few different variations on the design i will be working on. I will post these revisions as soon as i finish the CAD for it.
