    Hi @Al.Bundy & @Nick Moxley, thank you for the answer, I've already understood how to mount the levers to the gearbox shaft, but as long as I'm going to order all the pieces needed online (for a 2DOF platform I'll publish next week), I need to be precise about them.

    According with this type of motor diagram, the shaft has a diameter of 12,5mm. And 70mm of span. So the main bolt would need to be bigger in span & smaller in diameter than the gearbox shaft. So, could someone help with any recommendation about measures of bolts, nuts, couplers...to order online? or descriptions about them? Thank you

    DO not source your axle bolt till you have motor's in hands, Motor's from Pgsaw can have either 12mm or 1/2" holes, so I advise you wait till you have motor's to see what size you actually need. All you need is a 3' length of threaded rod and you can cut your own, Threaded rod is rather cheap. Source the appropriate nuts and Nylon nuts and Flex coupler's and its all an easy bolt together unit.
