3. Why is it asymmetric in design?
Thanks.

Maddie, thanks for the questions.
1. Our AM Gearbox parts will be ready within 2-3 weeks.
2. The intent for mounting is to use the 4 holes in the corner of each side plate. These are clearance holes for 1/4-20 screws.
3. We wrestled over the asymmetrical design. The main reason is because there are some clearance advantages when this gearbox is mounted in certain types of drivetrains. This design makes it fit better into a 4-wheel Killough platform, and it also lowers the Cg in a 4wd or 6wd drivetrain. We found this configuration to be benefitial.

Also... Greg's post is correct. Thanks, Greg.
