Joined the site after many threads came up through google. I am just looking for a better way when it comes to transaxles. I am not into street cars, but off-road, mostly sand applications. I can no chit just about hit a baseball to Mendeloa Transaxles from my shop. All available options for transaxles in the sand are way overpriced or expensive crap in a pretty package. I do design work for shops around San Diego, machine setups etc. I weld, fabricate, machine, yada yada. By no means am I a genius, but think I have a decent grasp on life. Look forward to hearing from the many on this site that seems to be very sharp...
