Overview
The ZF 2093.317.066 REAR AXLE HOUS. is a critical structural component within the final drive assembly of heavy-duty construction machinery. This OEM genuine housing encloses the differential and axle shafts, providing the rigid mounting point for the wheel ends and absorbing all torsional and vertical loads during operation. As the central chassis of the rear drivetrain, it ensures precise gear alignment and protects internal components from debris and contamination. The part number 2093.317.066 is specifically engineered to maintain the exacting tolerances required for ZF transmissions operating under extreme torque conditions.
Symptoms of Failure
When the rear axle housing wears or sustains damage, operators often notice visible oil seepage from the axle tube seals, particularly after extended operation. A second common indicator is unusual whining or grinding noises from the rear axle during turns, which suggests the housing has warped and misaligned the 2099109046: DIFFERENTIAL carrier bearings. You may also experience intermittent wheel lock-up or uneven tire wear caused by a cracked housing that allows the 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING to shift out of its race. Finally, vibration through the chassis at low speeds often points to a bent housing flange that compromises the 2093209094: DIFFERENTIAL alignment.

Compatibility
This rear axle housing is designed for ZF’s heavy-duty transmission series used in construction machinery. It is a direct fit for the ZF WG180 and ZF WG200 transmission families, commonly found in wheel loaders and telehandlers. The housing also supports the ZF WG150 series when paired with the correct 2093309078: DIFF.HOUSING adapter kit. For optimal performance, always replace the housing in conjunction with the internal differential components to prevent premature wear.
