Flipping an axle
I would like to revisit the axle discussion and the proposed solution of flipping the drive axle to allow for correct gearing. I recently saw a T16 drive axle mounted upside-down in a replica armoured vehicle which unlikely ever been driven because there was no engine. However my suspicions are that there would be major fluid issues from operating the axle upside down: either leakage or failure to have proper fluid distribution. Anyone with experience or an opinion?
