As for traction I can't imagine having too much traction with these new wheels. You should be able to turn just fine and go up the step without too much trouble.
It's very tempting to go with your suggestion; it was the only one that gave me a complete answer .

That still leaves me with a question, if we shouldn't build the gearbox, where should we get one?
