The gear box has two pulleys and a belt integrated into it allowing two output shafts. We did this to have a 6 wheel drive. We have two belts in the tubing. One goes from output a to the back, and output a drives center wheel. Then output b goes forward to run front wheel, and output b is terminated in the channel. This allows two 15mm belts to run on the same plane. In doing so we were able to keep all our belts inside the tubing. And it has a dog gear to allowing two speeds just like vexpro gearboxes are ran.
