Post WCD style Drivetrain for 6wd

I'm curious what sort of drivetrain other teams are using.
We are opting for a 6wd with 8" wheels. We're considering a couple reduction option but favor a 12.75: 1. None of the WCP vexpro gearboxes give us what we need so we are considering a Toughbox or toughbox mini.

What is your team using and why?

Hi,

You should be able to hit all these ratios, click on the attachment. I feel that we have plenty of options for you to choose from along with a good range from 9 to 12 in terms of gearing.

Please email support@wcproducts.net for any further questions.

Thanks!

Re: WCD style Drivetrain for 6wd

In your attachment, should the third ratio set read, "24:50"?
