Looking for a junk gearbox to use in a no-load motor test.  
Need input shaft and gearbox only.  
Borrow is ok. Buying is ok.  
I’ll pay shipping to Florida.

Part of the junk I picked up the other day was an extra 12.44(not sure of condition yet). I suppose if you really were desperate I could make up a crate for it but from shipping coast to coast gets pricey.  
A local source would probably be a better choice.

In the back part of my brain I’ve been toying with what it would take to make a motor run stand. That sounds like more of what is needed here.

I’ve got an 8:1 gearbox you could try. Same distance as @AssyRequired though. It’s all boxed up. If shipping isn’t completely crazy, I can send.
