I am not planning on using the clutches. I'm not sure what you mean by "how are you going to keep the first ring gear in place?"

DB
I didn't spend time trying to figure out exactly how the clutch works, but from what I remember it seems to me like the first ring gear in the DeWalt transmissions are kept in place by the clutch. When too much torque is applied to the transmission, the clutch gives in, allowing the first ring gear to slip. If you plan on using the first gear, but you are going to remove the clutch, there is nothing stopping the first ring gear from spinning freely. Thus, you would need to secure the first ring gear in place.
