Ironwood Imports exists to take the guesswork out of importing and buying used motors and gearboxes. From the moment a motor or gearbox is spotted in Thailand to the moment it arrives at your door, everything is documented and tested.
Heres how our process works...
Let us know what motor you are after and whether you need a matching gearbox. We can then confirm availability and compatibility. The process from here depends on whether the motor is in stock or in a container soon to arrive.
If the motor is already in Australia:
-
Full payment required via bank transfer or via website
-
Item can be arranged for pick up or freight
-
Available within 7 business days after purchase
If the motor is coming in a container:
-
A 10% holding deposit secures your motor
-
The rest of the balance is due before pickup or once freight is arranged
-
Typical wait time is 1-3 months depending on container schedules
All motors and gearboxes are sourced through trusted suppliers in Thailand and Japan who specialise in used motors and gearboxes. Before shipment, all motors, gearboxes and accessories are selected based on history, visual inspection, and quality tests. Detailed photos, running videos, compression tests and engine numbers are evidenced for each motor.
Each motor is delivered with compression test results, running videos and engine numbers. Gearboxes are quality tested by running through the gears and checking for noise or resistance. Start up videos are filmed so you can see and hear the motor run before it ever leaves for shipment.
Once arrived in Australia, all motors and gearboxes are visually inspected with condition verified against all documents. Items are then prepared for dispatch or collection. We stand behind our inspection process and documentation.
All motors and gearboxes are palletised. All motors and gearboxes are only available for delivery by freight to a business address or depot with forklift access. Small items are shipped via standard courier to business or residential addresses.

Used motors and gearboxes require transparency, documentation, and structured handling. Our process is designed to reduce risk at every stage, from sourcing overseas to local handling. With our process, we protect both our customers and the integrity of each sale. The result is a more predictable, accountable, and professional buying experience.
