Eaton aftermarket promotion to launch new transmission offerings

Power management company Eaton is introducing an aftermarket promotion that it says will bring competitive pricing, improved warranties and same-day shipments for the company’s most popular models of new manual transmissions. The program, which is ongoing now, includes 22 part numbers that represent roughly 80% of the replacement transmission market, and will run through March 15, 2017.

“These are new transmissions, not remanufactured units. These new units are built on the same production lines as transmissions for new trucks,” said Bill Fouch, aftermarket marketing manager for Eaton. “Content and all gearing are 100% genuine Eaton and includes all of our latest engineering upgrades.”

The base three-year/unlimited-mileage coast-to-coast warranty may be extended to four-years/unlimited-mileage when the transmissions are bundled with a new Eaton clutch and Eaton-approved synthetic lubricant. Same-day shipment with no premium charge also will be available for truck-down situations through Eaton’s 15 distribution centers during the six-month campaign.

“The new transmissions represent an important addition to Eaton’s growing aftermarket portfolio that has been designed to provide solutions for all of our customers,” added Fouch. “During this promotion, our customers still have the option to choose an Eaton Factory Reman transmission if that best meet their needs.”
