ZF 2094.224.001 BUSH | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

This genuine OEM ZF 2094.224.001 BUSH is a precision-engineered wear component designed to support rotating shafts within the transmission housing of heavy-duty construction machinery. It acts as a sacrificial liner, reducing friction between the shaft and the housing bore while maintaining precise alignment under high torque loads. The SKU 2094.224.001 is commonly found in the lower gear train assembly, where it stabilizes the main shaft and shift system components. Replacing this bushing during a rebuild prevents premature wear on adjacent parts such as the 2094104412 MAIN SHAFT and the 2094106010 SHIFT SYSTEM.

Symptoms of Failure

• Transmission gear slipping under load — A worn bushing allows excessive radial play, causing the 2094304054 MAIN SHAFT to misalign and lose engagement with mating gears.
• Metallic grinding noise from the transmission housing — As the bushing material erodes, metal-to-metal contact occurs between the shaft and housing, producing a distinct scraping sound during operation.
• Oil leaks around the shift mechanism area — Worn bushings create gaps that allow transmission fluid to bypass seals, often pooling near the 2094206001 GEARSHIFT SHAFT.
• Vibration in the driveline during gear changes — Loss of bushing integrity causes the shift system to wobble, leading to harsh or delayed engagement.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This bushing is engineered for ZF powershift transmissions commonly used in wheel loaders, graders, and dozers. It is a direct fit for the following transmission models: WG180, WG200, WG210, and 4WG310. The 2094.224.001 BUSH is also compatible with certain ErgoPower and Ecolife series units where the shift system and main shaft share a common housing bore. Always verify shaft diameter before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I reuse the old snap ring when installing this bushing?
A: No. Always replace the 0630513070 SNAP RING with a new one to ensure proper axial retention of the bushing in the housing bore.

Q: Does this bushing require lubrication before installation?
A: Yes. Apply a thin coat of clean transmission fluid to the inner surface of the 2094.224.001 BUSH to prevent galling during initial shaft rotation.

Q: How do I know if my transmission uses this bushing or the 2093206001 variant?
A: Measure the main shaft journal diameter. The 2094.224.001 fits a 40 mm shaft, while the 2093206001 BUSH is designed for a 35 mm shaft. Always verify with a micrometer before ordering.
