Ya, I'd be interested in seeing what you guys are coming up with too. Proly be a lot cheaper too, lol. I had 2 main goals for this box: 1) have the gearobx/motor as far forward as possible and 2) have the gears sealed so devris doesn't damage them.

Third less important goal was low CG

EDIT: I lied, I actually had 3 main goals. THe thrid was to make it machinist friendly. It is designed so that it can be meilled on any 3-axis mill without the use of any soft jaws (becasue there is a good chance I may be machining it myself at the techshop, and if I am not, it will proabbly reduce fab costs). It has parrallel sides so its can be viced up easily. Low cg is 4th, less important goal.

EDIT 2: TO admin (or another knowlegable person): I still need to know the distance between the bearings. I also need to the distance from the bearing to the slipper adjustment so I can make a opeining in the case for the tool to fit through. Also want to know if the stock cups will work with stock savage dog bones, as well as waht there diameter is.
