I was looking at the exploded view of the Mammoth Dump Druck and it seems to have a gear reduction on the txt style tranny... it looks like it would work pretty good. has any one tried it?

Twisted: KonaJoe (and maybe others that I'm not aware of) is running the Mammoth reduction. In his truck, it works very well. The only drawback that I can see is that the Mammoth reduction can only be mounted one way. In other words, the motor only mounts in one spot. You cannot "clock" the unit or swap around the mounting position to move the position of the motor. This isn't a big deal if you keep that in mind and build/mod your truck around it. Like I said, it works very well in Kona's truck.

Thats pretty slick... i figured it would be a good alternative for those that are not a fan of the gd600 due to its having to turn down the shaft... its sealed and pretty cleen to. Thanks for the info guys.
