A planetary gearbox with substantial speed reduction includes a stationary spindle, an integral service brake, and a parking brake. The integral service brake resides radially outwardly with respect to the parking brake in a stacked arrangement such that axial space is conserved yielding an axially short and compact gearbox. An oil passageway extends radially through the spindle. A rotating input shaft drives the planetary gearbox and produces an output in the form of a rotatable housing/hub. The service brake rotors have a large surface area and are keyed to the rotatable hub enabling efficient brake cooling and efficacious brake performance in a compact arrangement.
