Gearbox Ground Clearance Issues
We are looking at the Vexpro 2 CIM ball shifter with 3rd stage to direct drive the center wheels(all wheels are AM 8" pneumatic). I am mostly concerned with going over the rough terrain where the wheel is on a 1" block that is next to a 3" block. The gearbox hangs far enough below the frame to contact the 3" block. The orientation that gives the most ground clearance is with the output shaft and motors on the bottom and air cylinder on top. This leaves the large 3rd stage gear exposed which would have to be protected in some way. Is anyone else struggling with this and/or found a solution?
