I used a thrust bearing, two in fact, and a simple 2:1 reduction.
Although I did like the gearbox setup, I just thought a pulley system is easily handled in a situation.
The shaft of the mars pm motor is coupled to a clutch system for a future expanse of the charging system. I intend to use another similar motor as a generator when the drive is engaged and / or in regen mode. As you may know, these motors have no torque or hysterisis nessesary and all you have to do is be able to send the 'voltage' somewhere...
I had put a system like this running in my garage (under no load) and you would be surprised at how I recaptured lost energy. The system obviously can't 'run' on itself but you CAN (unlike other pundits of energy) recapture more than half spent.
I also intend to add another smaller 24v motor and feed the house bank.
I do have pics and will post when I find the time.
Thanks Rick
