I also ordered the direct drive gearbox. After about 50 emails back and forth between me and dan, this is where I am at: The gearbox is designed to be a drop in repalcement, with the spur forward, while accommodating the stock electronics box. However, I want the spur to the rear, with the motor in the front, so I can put the batteries in the back (I have an extended FLM chassis). According to dan, in order to put it in backwards, you have to change the output shafts, so if he hasn't shipped it yet, I would shoot him an email if you want to mount the tranny backwards.
