As always, pictures are super appreciated, as I think that's the best way to understand this.

I'm sorry if I have a lot of questions, I just want to get this down to a science so that I know what to do come Jan 4th! Thanks everyone, you've been really helpful!

I think that you add this part to the three CIM wcp gearbox to add a power takeoff. You can mount a pulley, sprocket or gear to the versahub thing with the dog pattern in it. You can find a cad drawing of the three CIM gearbox with the pto on the wcp 3 CIM shifter page. I think (but not sure) that with this setup both the pto shaft and normal drive shaft are powered when the pto is engaged, which is different from how some other teams (118, 254) have done it.
