Gearboxes

Gearboxes are an extremely complex and fundamental part of any vehicle, it consists of an array of gears inside a metal casing attached to the engine.

The gearbox enables you to build up speed whilst keeping engine rpm as low as possible. Lower gears are large in size and therefore turn slowly, which is useful for moving the vehicle at low speeds. Higher gears are small in size and turn quickly, whilst higher gears enable the vehicle to move high speeds, they are unable to move a heavy vehicle from a stationary position.

Gearbox wear and faults can be caused by worn shift levers, clutches or incorrect oils.
