Remanufactured Gearboxes

The Entire Fleet of Gearbox Express Remanufactured Gearboxes Feature a Three-Year No-Risk Warranty, Upgradeable to Five Years with Revolution.

There is a big difference between a repaired gearbox and a remanufactured gearbox. Repairs only address the component that failed, perpetuating the failure. Remanufacturing addresses the entire system.

Gearbox Express Main Shaft Remanufacturing

Gearbox Express has comprehensive specifications for its remanufactured gearboxes, backed by our No-Risk Warranty. This warranty is insurance underwritten, and includes coverage of all removal and reinstallation costs. This combination creates an industry-leading product that’s better than a new gearbox, providing peace of mind.

Gearing
