Re: Help with custom transmision and gear CAD.

We built this exact set-up for overdrive with AM parts as Nikhil suggested.

AM SS with 4:1 span and 48:17 output into a 24:22 chain reduction (AM sprockets of course).

It works fine on the long breaks, but be advised, it can be expensive from a power consumption standpoint (especially with a skid steer). If you map your floor speed to power and efficiency you'll get the picture. Since I already have the plots I've included them.
