To smash productivity targets, you need to keep your equipment in the best possible condition. Maintenance, servicing and off-highway transmission rebuilds from Driveline are the best ways to ensure your site stays on track.

Off-highway transmissions are used in extreme conditions that can strain internal components and affect precision tolerances, leading to expensive downtime. 

Partnering with Driveline gives you control over your fleet and maintenance requirements. We work closely with clients to deliver servicing that meets or exceeds OEM specifications. And with support from leading off-highway powertrain manufacturers, we can supply all the parts required for servicing and maintenance.

We also provide off-highway transmission rebuilds.

Off-Highway Axle Rebuilds & Maintenance

Off-highway axles are responsible for transferring the engine’s power to the wheels. These heavy-duty components can be complex, and they often incorporate the differential, transfer case, brake packs and final drive. This makes regular maintenance and repairs vital to equipment uptime, and Driveline is here to take care of your off-highway axles and axle assemblies. 

Our off-highway axle rebuild service is designed to return your axles and assemblies to OEM standards or better. We source parts directly from leading powertrain manufacturers and provide rebuilds in our modern, well-appointed workshops. All axle rebuilds and assemblies are completed according to the OEM specifications, and we also perform hydro-dynamic testing on rebuilt off-highway axles for additional quality assurance and peace of mind that your equipment is ready for anything.

Off-Highway Transmission and Axle FAQs

Off-highway transmissions and differentials should be serviced every 500-700 hours, or according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Regular servicing typically includes replacing oils, lubricants and filters. This simple task can dramatically reduce wear and extend the life of drivetrain components.

Off-highway transmissions typically need to be rebuilt after 7,000-10,000 hours of use. While the transmission may last longer without a rebuild, the likelihood of component failure increases rapidly.

It’s important to have off-highway transmissions rebuilt by the qualified team at Driveline. We’ve partnered with the world’s leading off-highway suppliers to provide leading service, maintenance, rebuild and replacement solutions for your equipment.

No. Off-highway vehicles should not be operated if the transmission is leaking. Even the smallest leak can drain a transmission and do irreparable damage to its internal components.

Leaky gaskets and seals can also allow contaminants to enter the transmission cases. Contaminants like dirt and coal dust are highly abrasive and can do serious damage to high-tolerance components. If you notice a leak during an inspection, it’s best to report the issue and have the vehicle assessed by the specialists at Driveline before it is put back into operation.

An off-highway axle is a heavy-duty axle designed for vehicles that operate in tough, off-road conditions such as mining trucks, loaders, graders, and agricultural equipment. These axles are built to handle extreme loads, uneven terrain, and continuous use.

Common signs include unusual noise or vibration, oil leaks, uneven tyre wear, poor traction, or difficulty steering. If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to have your axle inspected by an expert before it causes further damage to your driveline.

A full rebuild typically includes complete disassembly, cleaning, component inspection, replacement of worn or damaged parts, seal and bearing replacement, reassembly, and testing to ensure performance meets OEM specifications.
