Buy a DAF Truck Gearbox
The DAF gearbox is a crucial component of your truck. It converts the engine's power into motion and determines how smoothly and efficiently you can drive. At BAS Parts & Tyres, you will find a wide range of gearboxes for different DAF models, ensuring you can always choose the right gearbox for your truck.
Types of DAF Gearboxes
DAF offers several types of gearboxes, both manual and automatic. At BAS Parts & Tyres, we have these types in stock or can supply them:
Manual DAF Gearboxes
These gearboxes offer full control over the gears. They are ideal for drivers accustomed to traditional shifting systems and often driving in heavy traffic. Manual gearboxes are robust and reliable but require regular maintenance of the clutch and shifting mechanism.
Automatic DAF Gearboxes (AS Tronic / TraXon)
Automatic gearboxes, such as AS Tronic or TraXon, provide smooth shifting without the need to operate the clutch manually. They improve driving comfort, save fuel, and reduce clutch wear. These gearboxes are popular for long-distance transport and international routes.
Refurbished and Used DAF Gearboxes
At BAS Parts & Tyres, we also offer refurbished gearboxes. These are inspected, repaired where necessary, and tested for performance. This way, you get a reliable DAF gearbox at a lower price than new, ideal for older trucks or as a replacement for a faulty gearbox.
DAF Gearbox Maintenance
A well-maintained gearbox lasts much longer. Regularly check oil levels, shift smoothly, and listen for unusual noises. Change the transmission oil according to the DAF schedule and address minor issues immediately.
Tips to Extend Lifespan
- Always use the correct DAF transmission oil
- Shift smoothly and avoid sudden load
- Check clutch and shifting mechanism regularly
- Repair wear or leaks immediately
