So....you want a really really low gear? What kind of rig is this for?
Darn that's what I was afraid of I need something light, but thanks for the info and to answer your question it's for our SAE's mini baja car. What we need is something super low and light in order to stay competitive. We have used the Dana H12 FNR trans-axle which is geared 13.33:1 but we still are not getting maximum performance out of our CVT's so we are trying to go low to make them happy and make up the speed with a taller tire. Anyways would you guys know of anything that weighs close to 33 lbs and has high low neutral and reverse? With some deep gearing. (I know I'm asking a lot lol)

Thanks
