Oh my. Have I got something for you guys within the next few months. A gauranteed jaw dropper
Anyways, I examined and reproduced the Skunkworks design in AutoCAD to use as reference for future projects. Ya the design looks bulletproof. It's a definate improvement over the FG design but for some reason the one-way bearing detonates within a few minutes of running. I've seen it happen on 3 guys I know all within the same day of them getting the tranny. Now another buddy of mine got a hold of another 2 speed ( I forget the manufacturer but it's somebody from the UK) and it's been holding up well considering it has duel one-ways. I think if you took the overall Skunkwork design and paired it with the duel one-ways you would have a bullet-proof design.
