I say 'new' because that's how they were advertised to me by my previous builder and they do not appear to be used from visual inspection and my new builder (a Professor at hybrid auto dept at vocational school) has opened the motor and thoroughly inspected and ran both and both run like-new, so I have no reason to believe they're not.

As you can see in photos the motor comes with horizontally opposed aluminum mount and steel torsion/torque mount and gearbox comes with top mount pictured that's attached to it and rear mount I can unbolt and include rear torsion mount for gearbox pictured, but as you can see in photo its bracket is welded to a frame so you'll need to fab similar simple L bracket and weld.

Unfortunately I never was able to find published specs on the gearbox it was supplied by HPEVS (apparently Graziano makes transmissions for Lamborghini so I have to assume they know gearboxes) and I've spoken to both Brian and Bill there and I recall them telling me the gear ratio is 8:1 and it does have reduction gears inside (not chain) and has a forward gear setting and a park (motor & controller controls reverse)

Also comes with gearbox compatible CV joints (pictured inserted into gearbox actually HPEVS told me Geo Metro CVs work for inside CVs) and spline shafts (I forgot to take pic but will add one as soon as I can) I had them custom made from only company I could find that does it in North Carolina - outside of shafts are splined for standard VW CV joints - so if coincidentally those work for your project that's great, if not the NC company can fab new custom splined shafts for your outside CV joints (I can supply their info to buyer)

I 'acquired' these about 2 years ago (my 1st builder talked me into taking them said they would be best for my project I didn't know anything about EV at the time), and he said a prior project flaked on him so that's why he had them, so that's all I know about the age of them. I can use Curtis controller so that's not included.

Total weight together about 150 lbs I estimate conservatively, so naturally would prefer local pickup I'm in the SF Bay Area, or buyer pays shipping and we can figure out best way to do that.

I don't have any use for these and since this AC50 shaft is compatible specifically for this gearbox selling as set not individually I want to get rid of them $1500 total obo thanks

Do you know what track width (from outside of tire to outside of tire) the axles you have would imply?

Hi - this is interesting, for sure. Reading between the lines, are you saying this was made for a VW. (sorry, my question-mark is not working).

It would be interesting to know why you are selling it.

I have a truck coming up here from SF fairly-often. Could you drop it at the Shipper`s.

Thanks.

Hi sorry just seeing these the forum didn't notify my of new posts I assumed there weren't any. To answer questions my build is ~57" wide rear outside tire to outside, but that is not length of custom axles - those go to inside of stub axles (sorry I don't have that exact width now but will measure next week when revisit project).
Other question no the project isn't a VW but yes uses VW suspension parts.

In case it is helpful for anyone wanting to understand who "graziano" is:
Oerlikon Graziano (in Wikipedia): Home › Products › Automotive › Transmission systems for full electric and hybrid vehicles (on corporate website).
That page include a link to a brochure of these products; although two single-speed transaxles are shown (around the middle of the list), neither is this specific model. The company sells to vehicle manufacturers, so the product information is more of a sampling of what they can do than a catalog of what can be ordered.

In this case, perhaps the drivetrain was built for the Wheego LiFe... based on comments in other threads.

This company is certainly an experienced and capable designer and manufacturer of gearboxes.

Perhaps a polite request by e-mail, providing the gearbox model identification (there must be something useful on that data plate...) would yield specs and other useful information?

Brian, Hi thank you for the thorough info much appreciated I just sold these parts to a member over the weekend I will fwd it to him so he has in case he doesn't see this post.

****SOLD****

Great - perhaps he can update us with any detail he finds (even just the model number).
