DOUBLEEDIT: Same goes for the large bevel gear. It appears to only be constrained by a single e-clip and the wheel. And the wheel is not constrained.
Pull the smaller one off the shaft, you will see it is constrained from moving up by a step in the shaft and down by the larger bevel gear. As for the larger one I am not sure, I see the e-clip in the middle of the drive shaft (somewhat concerning putting a stress riser there, I have seen 1/2 in drive shafts break due to e-clips), preventing it from moving in a direction it wouldn't want to move in due to the smaller bevel gear as for the other direction I see nothing, the wheel is floating unless the spacer is the wrong size, if it moved at all the screws would hit the side wall. http://screencloud.net/v/nEx

As Adam said, AM knows their stuff but it would be nice to know. Can't wait to see this in person, probably at the AM booth in STL if we don't use them this year
