Defence

Driveline has a longstanding relationship with the Australian Defence Force, most recently as a supplier of driveshafts for protected mobility vehicles. With extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities, our solutions are second to none, and we welcome the challenge presented by ADF projects.

Our Defence relationships have included extensive in-house R&D to design and engineer solutions that meet stringent criteria. The components we have designed are hard at work in some of the world’s harshest and most unpredictable environments, and we are proud to say they meet the challenge.

There’s more than 40 years of experience behind our manufacturing capabilities. This allows us to design, engineer and install components to meet the strictest Defence requirements. We continue to work with Australian Defence on R&D for the manufacture and supply of future projects, and we look forward to the opportunity to support our Defence forces further.

Our market solutions include:

  • Personnel carriers
  • Light attack vehicles
  • Tanks
  • Airport tugs
  • Pushback tractors
  • Aircraft service vehicles

Agricultural Power Transmission and PTO Shafts

Agriculture has rapidly become one of Australia’s most competitive industries. As populations centralise and farms expand, the use of powered equipment makes modern agriculture possible.

We carry an extensive range of parts, components and assemblies for all types of agricultural equipment. Our stock includes parts that are suitable for tractors, harvesters, balers, combines and much more. We carry all power transmission and underbody components, including:

  • Transmissions
  • Torque converter parts
  • Axles and driveshafts
  • Final drives
  • PTO shafts

When your business needs to meet strict crop cycles, Driveline supplies power transmission and underbody components to keep your machinery up and running for longer.

Transmission and Differential Rebuild, Repair and Replacement

Transmissions and diffs have some of the toughest jobs in a driveline. Whether you’re harvesting a field, transporting materials or participating in Defence exercises, you need to ensure your power transmission components are up to the task.

Transmissions and differentials are also high precision assemblies, and they are often susceptible to knocks, damage and hard use. Small defects can severely shorten the life of your components, which may leave you stranded at just the wrong moment.

Driveline ensures your equipment is ready for anything with full rebuilding, repair and replacement services for transmissions and differentials.

We service and rebuild transmissions and diffs for all agriculture, materials handling and Defence equipment. Our experienced technicians have access to parts from leading suppliers, allowing us to rebuild your components to OE specifications or better.

For components we can’t rebuild or repair, we also offer suitable remanufactured units, and we can source original equipment from suppliers all over the world. With Driveline, you can rest assured that your vehicles will never be left stranded.

Driveshaft Straightening and Repairs

Driveshafts and PTO shafts are indispensable in a huge range of materials handling and agriculture applications. They’re often subject to harsh conditions, shock loading and extreme operational angles that can wear out components and damage shafts.

To ensure your equipment has the power it needs, Driveline provides a comprehensive range of driveshaft straightening and repair services. We’re equipped with state-of-the-art measuring and balancing machines. That allows us to assess industrial and agricultural driveline components for alignment issues, straighten shafts and return your equipment to original condition.

We pair driveshaft straightening with metal reclamation to repair worn and corroded surfaces. Driveline uses low temperature metal reclamation technology to build up lost material without compromising heat treating cycles. We can then use our manufacturing equipment to return driveshafts and PTO shafts to OE specification, and you can get back to work sooner.

Custom Manufactured Parts and Assemblies

Driveline stocks an extensive range of parts, components and assemblies. Our inventory includes parts for all types of agricultural, Defence and materials handling machinery. Whether it’s passenger cars, road transport trucks, earthmoving equipment or specialist vehicles, we can supply a solution for any fleet.

If we cannot supply the parts you require, Driveline also provides in-house manufacturing services and can engineer any component you need. With over 40 years’ experience in manufacturing power transmission and underbody components, Driveline has the skills, experience and equipment to tackle any fabrication job.

Our workshops have access to state-of-the-art CNC mills, industrial balancing machines, transmission dynos and much more. This allows us to support Defence, agriculture and materials handling clients with custom components and fabrication services. Whatever you have in mind, Driveline can fabricate parts that deliver power, performance and reliability in the world’s toughest environments.
