Re: Govt Liq 718

Rock crawler reduction gearbox. Some of the guys sent me some piccies of them and was fitted after the gearbox. I can't see much real point in having that and apparently caused major vibration issues. Of note an auto prop shaft is quite pricey so you can: - cut down a manual one - or also seen a gas...
