Hi Nik,

 

You could try ringing Ron and buying them direct from him

Hi. Ron Chaplin tells me he has now retired. As one of his regular customers I tried to purchase four units from him recently and failed to do so. I have now switched supplier

Well I wish he would explain that on his current website (or just take the website down if he has retired!), I have been awaiting a reply for an enquiry for a gearbox for a couple of weeks now a simple reply stating his retirement would have been courteous.

 

May I ask which supplier you now use?

No problem David. ABC http://www.abcgears.co.uk/ Regards Ken

Hi, I use ABC as they make units to fit anything you ask for! Their axle hung units are very good and I have two of them in a hymec one on each bogie, runs well and will pull a good load. I'm just a GOG satisfied customer excellent service, I just sent two axles for the motors to be fixed too and they came back in about 3 weeks which I think is good service for a single maker to give.
