How about the new HL Stug gearboxes? Anyone got a set to measure for Bubba?

I'm pretty sure the old Sherman gearbox unit sat as high as the new DMD's. Anyone got one handy to check it?

Only thing I can think of is hacking a Leopard/Gepard gearbox to make it thinner, and doing the 380 reduction-drive mod as was mentioned in the following thread: [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_7990106/tm.htm]Are Tamiya old clutch drive gearboxes worth upgrading?[/link]

I have at least one spare I can look at for hackability (if I can dig out the box) ... and a Sherman chassis I can measure. Want me to look, take some pics, and measure it up for the possible hack?
