Engine Shipping from Portugal to Senegal

Need to ship a truck engine from Portugal to Senegal?

Britannia Export arranges international freight for heavy commercial vehicle parts including engines, gearboxes and complete driveline assemblies.

Unlike an ordinary parcel, a complete truck engine and gearbox requires suitable handling.

The cargo is heavy, valuable and irregularly shaped.

It must be prepared correctly for:

• Collection
• Forklift handling
• Road transport
• Export handling
• Port operations
• International freight
• Final delivery arrangements

The photographs from this shipment show the Mercedes engine and gearbox secured and wrapped as one complete export package before transport.

Mercedes OM906 Engine Shipping to Dakar

The Mercedes-Benz OM906 LA is widely used in commercial vehicle applications and remains sought after in export markets where Mercedes trucks continue to operate in large numbers.

Britannia Export handles enquiries for shipping Mercedes engines and gearboxes to Africa, including replacement units for:

• Mercedes-Benz Atego
• Mercedes-Benz Axor
• Mercedes-Benz 1824
• Mercedes-Benz 1924
• Mercedes commercial trucks
• Truck rebuild projects
• Replacement engine installations

This particular unit combines the OM906 LA engine and G100-1 manual gearbox, allowing the customer to receive a much more complete driveline package than purchasing an engine alone.

OM906 LA 240 HP Euro 2 Engine

This Mercedes power unit is a 6.4 litres inline six turbo diesel producing 240 HP.

For export buyers, the Euro 2 specification can be attractive because it comes from an earlier generation of commercial vehicle engineering without the highly complex emissions systems found on modern Euro 6 trucks.

Key specifications include:

Mercedes-Benz OM906 LA

6,374 cc

6 cylinder inline

12 valves

240 HP

Turbo diesel

Euro 2

For operators maintaining older Mercedes commercial fleets, replacement engines like this remain highly valuable.

Mercedes G100-1 12 Speed Manual Gearbox

The engine is being shipped complete with a Mercedes-Benz G100-1 12 speed manual gearbox.

This is important because many international buyers are not simply searching for a bare engine.

They require:

Engine + gearbox complete

rather than purchasing separate components and then attempting to match the drivetrain later.

A complete package can be especially useful for:

• Truck rebuilds
• Engine conversions
• Replacement drivetrains
• Fleet maintenance
• Accident damaged truck repairs
• Donor vehicle projects

Truck Engine and Gearbox Shipping to Africa

Britannia Export specialises in exporting heavy commercial vehicle components from Europe to African destinations.

Typical cargo can include:

• Complete truck engines
• Engines with gearboxes
• Automatic gearboxes
• Manual gearboxes
• Complete power packs
• Front axles
• Rear axles
• Differentials
• Truck cabs
• Prop shafts
• Suspension components
• Hydraulic equipment
• Commercial vehicle spare parts

If the component is too large or heavy for ordinary courier freight, send us the dimensions and weight.

We can assess an appropriate transport solution.

Heavy Spare Parts Shipping Portugal to Dakar

Shipping a complete diesel engine from Portugal to Senegal requires much more than simply putting an address label on it.

The cargo needs to be suitable for mechanical handling.

Heavy engines and gearboxes may require:

• Palletisation
• Heavy-duty base support
• Wrapping
• Strapping
• Forklift access
• Oil and fluid preparation where required
• Accurate weight information
• Export documentation

Correct preparation protects the cargo and makes handling considerably easier throughout the journey.

Collection of Truck Engines in Portugal

The engine does not need to already be sitting at an export terminal.

Britannia Export can arrange collection from locations throughout Portugal.

We handle freight enquiries involving parts located at:

• Truck dealers
• Workshops
• Breakers
• Vehicle dismantlers
• Fleet operators
• Machinery yards
• Private sellers
• Commercial vehicle specialists

You can purchase an engine in Portugal and ask us to arrange the logistics afterwards.

Bought an Engine in Portugal for Africa?

Many overseas customers find engines, gearboxes and truck parts online but then face the same problem:

• Mercedes SK
• Mercedes LK
• Mercedes Sprinter

Whether you require one complete engine or a larger shipment of commercial vehicle parts, send us the cargo details.

Shipping Engines to Dakar, Senegal

Dakar is an important West African destination for vehicles, machinery and commercial vehicle components arriving from Europe.

Britannia Export can arrange freight enquiries for:

Truck engines

Gearboxes

Vehicle parts

Machinery parts

Complete trucks

Construction machinery

Agricultural equipment

Commercial vehicles

from Portugal and other European countries to Senegal.

Engine & Gearbox Export from Europe to Africa

Our service is not limited to Mercedes-Benz.

Britannia Export handles freight enquiries for engines and transmissions from manufacturers including:

• Mercedes-Benz
• Volvo
• Scania
• MAN
• DAF
• Renault Trucks
• Iveco
• Toyota
• Ford
• Nissan
• Mitsubishi
• Isuzu

Cargo can range from individual engines to complete commercial vehicle power packs.

Complete Power Pack Shipping

Some customers require much more than a bare engine.

We can also handle enquiries involving complete power packs containing:

• Engine
• Gearbox
• Cab
• Front axle
• Rear axle
• Suspension
• Prop shaft
• Chassis sections

These assemblies are particularly attractive for overseas truck rebuilders because they provide multiple compatible components from the same donor vehicle.

Portugal to West Africa Spare Parts Shipping

Britannia Export can assess commercial vehicle parts shipments from Portugal towards destinations including:

• Dakar, Senegal
• Banjul, The Gambia
• Freetown, Sierra Leone
• Conakry, Guinea
• Bissau, Guinea-Bissau
• Monrovia, Liberia
• Abidjan, Ivory Coast
• Tema, Ghana
• Lomé, Togo
• Cotonou, Benin
• Lagos, Nigeria

Available freight options depend on the cargo dimensions, weight and destination.

Shipping Heavy Engines Safely

A commercial truck engine can weigh hundreds of kilograms.

When a gearbox remains attached, the complete assembly becomes even heavier and longer.

That is why accurate information is essential.

When requesting a quotation, provide:

Make and model

Engine model

Gearbox model if included

Approximate weight

Length × width × height

Collection postcode

Photographs

Destination port

The better the information, the more accurately the freight movement can be planned.

Why Ship the Engine and Gearbox Together?

For many overseas buyers, purchasing the complete drivetrain can make considerably more sense than buying individual components.

A complete engine and gearbox package helps preserve compatibility between:

• Engine
• Bellhousing
• Clutch
• Transmission
• Mountings
• Associated components

It can also reduce the amount of sourcing required at the destination.

In this shipment, the customer purchased the complete Mercedes-Benz engine and manual gearbox package for export to Senegal.
