THERE is a distinct possibility that Hino trucks will use Fuller gearboxes and Eaton axles if and when the Japanese company starts marketing in Britain.
This was the view of Robert "Bob" Richards, Group Vice President Truck Components of the Eaton Corporation.
He said that negotiations were under way between Tokyo and Cleveland, Ohio with a view to the twin-countershaft nine-speed Fuller gearbox being used in preference to the Japanese built five-speed unit.
If the move comes off, it will bring the total number of Eaton customers who market trucks in Europe to 16.
