P1059 TRANSVERSE LMP GEARBOX
LEGACY PRODUCT
The P1059 gearbox is one of Xtrac’s legacy products, which whilst not currently in production, spares and technical support are still available upon request.
This gearbox is designed and manufactured for LMP2 Sports Car applications. It is a customer specification transverse gearbox, based on one of Xtrac’s successful Le Mans winning gearbox designs.
The project involved the design, manufacture and assembly of a rear mounted, transverse gearbox. The resultant design allows gear cluster changes without disassembly of the rear of the car. Gear changes are performed using Xtrac’s positive and reliable sequential gearchange mechanisms which are compatible with all leading AGS suppliers.
Xtrac’s legendary record for reliability and performance was built on multiple winning Le Mans record from products like this.
