Re: Supershifter Encoder Reliability Problems?

Q,

Thanks for bringing this up. We're using supershifters for the first time this year, and I'll have ours checked out tonight before going on the chassis (yes, we are a little behind where we'd hoped to be).

Originally, we weren't aware that there were coders built into the transmissions, so we designed one wheel axle on each side longer than necessary, to extend beyond the bearing and back into the main portion of the chassis, where we had intended to mount COTS encoders. Would something like that be easier for you to do, rather than unmount and disassemble the transmissions?

Steve
