Re: Banebot 56mm gearbox - double D - RELOADED

the 12:1 transmission uses a 4:1 first stage, and a 3:1 second stage. The 16:1 transmission uses two 4:1 stages. The first stage carrier plate has much less load on it than the second stage, so you don't need a new first stage plate.

If you decide to replace the vulnerable carrier, you need a new 3:1 second stage carrier made if you are using 12:1 transmissions.
