I'm thinking they are the 3-speed gearboxes mentioned ,

Are there any other places to buy the Dewalt XRP gearboxes without buying the whole drill ?

The parts are available at https://www.dewaltservicenet.com

Almost all XRP drill models share the same inside parts but the DC930KA works as good as any for our purposes. If one XRP drill model is out of housings, you can use another (just make sure it uses the same gearbox -- that is the heart of the matter).

If dewaltservicenet.com is out of the parts, try calling your local Dewalt service center. They have access to a stock of parts that is independent of the parts from dewaltservicenet.com I have had good luck finding parts locally if I was in a jam.

Also, know that in my experience, dewaltservicenet.com almost always seems to beat their posted backorder dates so if they are out of parts and claim they will not be in for a month, you may find that they are back in stock in two weeks.


Finally with regard to dewaltservicenet.com, you may have to register to get to see the parts lists but it is relatively easy.

Good luck.
