the people who supplied the gearbox should pay the labour charge upon inspection of faulty component supplied.

You have bough from a trader, that is what is important as the trader has legal obligations and you have statutory rights. Basically, if the gearbox is not fit for purpose then you can expect a free of charge replacement or repair.

I could drum up lots of trade for my sister as this is her area, but she is overworked at the moment, so these people are worth a try for free advice
