Hewland Gearbox Parts
and Service

 

Hewland components & reasonably priced service.

    With our first introduction to a Hewland transaxle in 1971, through the present, their bespoke racing components continue to be the backbone of the limited-production race car industry. Their success stems from the genius of their designs, and have provided a simplistic yet durable, power transmission system, requiring minimal attention and quick ratio alterations. All the while, providing the competitor with one of the more reliable assemblies on their vehicle.

     genuine hewland gears, hewland clutch rings, hewland spare partsCompared to other components that make up a race car, detailed servicing of the Hewland gearbox is rather infrequent, and yet, very important. With the increasing loads of the modern racing vehicle placing a greater emphasis on the individual internal workings, their proper adjustments and the right parts are critical. 

    The Hewland name is synonymous with a foremost designed and engineered package, based on the sum total of it's parts. Servicing need not be expensive, nor should it be overlooked because it "still works". Keep in mind that many aftermarket parts are little better then a visual copy of the original design, without the engineering to support it.

     Although, there are many components that can be exchanged with a minimal amount of effort and normal support tools, these transaxles are best serviced by our professionals, with years of experience and the proper tools.
