Re: WCP: 2017 Product Launch + MCC 2017

Hi All,
Can the WCD Flipped Gearbox be used with a regular pneumatic hardware kit?

That is, can you build a gearbox using the components WCP-0070, 217-3496 and WCP-0125? (A normal WCD DS Flipped is WCP-0070, WCP-0125, and WCP-0126).

Thanks!

Yes, but doing that would involve mounting the pneumatics on the opposite side of the WCD backplate

Page 28 of the manual has directions. Is that what you are asking?

What I'm hoping to do is mount the pneumatic kit with the WCD option, not the Standard/Non WCD option. It's sort of an unusual hybrid option that isn't shown in the product info for the gearbox, so I wanted to see if there was any issue.

I contacted WCP about this and heard back the following:

"All the WCD kit does is space the cylinder out, you can use or print some spacers instead"

We will start building the boxes this afternoon, so I will keep you (and WCP) posted as to our progress and issues that arise, but it seems to be a pretty simple problem to solve.

All Dogs are machined and ready to go, we got some out yesterday/today and waiting for more thunder hex bearings which will be here early tomorrow. Everything should be out the door by tomorrow.

Most if not all teams should've received a tracking # for the DS flipped, base kits, shifter rods, WCD add on kits.

We should also have the pancakes being boxed and in the shipping que tonight. Just received some some from SMC today.
