Why did you choose to go live axle without the benefit of being able to quickly change wheels (your outer side plate looks welded on)?

Thanks!
Weight of the gearbox alone: 9 pounds with motors and pneumatics.
Weight of the entire drive base: somewhere around 40 pounds.
We have the ability to pull off that outer bar by undoing 4 bolts (you can't see them in this shot), and then it's simple to pull and swap wheels, gearboxes, and wheel modules. It was really a great system, mostly because I never needed to maintenance it.
