Re: Thoughts on the new AM14U 2014 KOP Drive train?
Does anyone have a drawing of the side rails with dimensions at all? Specifically the dimensions for the center area where the drive hardware bolts up. I'm trying to determine what modifications may be needed for the 2 CIM ball shifters we bought.

You can always measure the official CAD models.

Thanks Max. I saw that on their site. I was hoping to land a pdf so I could play with this at home here, but I'll take all the help I can get. I do appreciate it. I can't manipulate it myself here, but I'm sure I can get it done at school.

If anyone has a pdf drawing with those center dimensions to share, that'd be great.

Thanks again.

The pages for the individual plates have layout drawings.

AHA! Those I didn't see!

I looked at the diagram for the inner plate and unfortunately there aren't any dimensions in the center there except for the larger holes. I'll have to see what I can get from the .step.

Thanks loads for your help, Gary.

We did this today. Used a bearing to locate with the transmission sideplate and a transfer punch to mark the 4 mounting holes. You may need to slot the upper hole as shown for the shaft.

Check the gearing for your application.
