Re: modified toughbox

We did this, by removing the second stage of gear reduction. It requires drilling some holes in the aluminum plate to clear the ends of the motor shafts, and playing with the end play spacing of the large gear, plus relocating the gear tooth sensors (if you are using them). For 4" wheels we used a 1:2 sprocket reduction ratio (12 tooth on the transmission, 24 on the wheels).
