We used a couple of these on our drivetrain gearboxes and were very happy with them. Obviously our setup is a little different than your gearbox.

I like that encoder mount, looks like it would be really simple to take on and off for maintenance, not to mention light weight. Are there issues with the mount shaking while it runs, or does it all fit pretty snug?

Any chance you could post the CAD for it?
