Transfer box
In the last couple of weeks I have been experimenting with a planetary reduction, which I got from a small geared motor. A lot of trial and error! The outside diameter is 22 mm and all the gears are steel.
The trick was to incorporate it in the transfer box. I tried a lot of different setups, but I think I found a setup that works. The transfer box will have two speeds (direct and very low) and front wheel drive can be engaged or disengaged. The real one has an inter-axle diff, between the rear axles and the front axle, but I couldn’t find the right planetaries to accomplish that. It would need a 1:2 ratio.
It turned out nice and compact. But it hasn’t been tested yet.
