Gearbox Rebuilds
Motorsport Gearbox Rebuilds Near Silverstone
At Ben Sharpe Racing, all gearbox rebuilds are carried out in-house within a clean, controlled workshop environment near Silverstone Circuit.
This isn’t a quick turnaround job or a basic refresh.
It’s a methodical, lab-style process where every component is stripped, cleaned, inspected and measured against exact tolerances before reassembly. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is assumed.
The result is a gearbox built to handle the demands of serious track and race use.
Our Gearbox Rebuild Process
Every rebuild follows a structured, engineering-led approach:
Full Strip & Inspection
Complete disassembly of the gearbox to assess internal condition and identify wear patterns.
Component Cleaning & Preparation
All parts are thoroughly cleaned and prepared for accurate inspection and measurement.
Tolerance Checking
Critical components are measured against manufacturer and motorsport tolerances.
Wear & Weak Point Identification
We don’t just rebuild — we improve. Known weak areas are addressed to increase reliability.
Precision Reassembly
Gearboxes are rebuilt with care, accuracy and attention to detail throughout.
Built for Track & Race Use
Our gearbox rebuilds are designed for:
-
Track day cars under sustained load
-
Race cars requiring reliability under pressure
-
High-performance road cars used on circuit
-
Drivers experiencing gearbox issues or degradation
-
Preventative maintenance for serious builds
Whether it’s a refresh or a full motorsport-spec rebuild, the goal is the same, confidence under load.
