ZF 0730.100.905 ADJUSTMENT PLATE for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0730.100.905 ADJUSTMENT PLATE is a precision-engineered shim component designed for the WG 200 series transmission family. This OEM genuine part (SKU: 0730.100.905) sits between the TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the planetary gear set, serving as a critical spacer to control axial clearance and preload. By maintaining exact end-play tolerances, this adjustment plate ensures proper gear meshing and load distribution across the transmission’s rotating assemblies. Without this component, the entire drivetrain’s alignment can shift, leading to premature wear on adjacent bearings and shafts.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 0730.100.905 adjustment plate wears or becomes damaged, operators typically notice these specific failure modes:

• “ZF WG200 transmission oil leaks near the housing joint” – A worn plate can cause misalignment, breaking the seal between the TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the cover.
• “Gear slipping under load in WG180/WG200” – Excessive axial play from a degraded adjustment plate allows gears to shift out of mesh, causing intermittent power loss.
• “Metallic grinding noise during gear engagement” – Insufficient preload from a collapsed plate leads to metal-on-metal contact between planetary components.
• “Hard shifting or delayed engagement in ZF off-highway transmissions” – Altered clearances affect hydraulic clutch pack timing, producing rough shifts.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This adjustment plate is engineered for the ZF WG 200 series and its closely related variants. It is a direct fit for the following transmission models:

• ZF WG180
• ZF WG200
• ZF WG210 (limited applications)

When replacing this plate, always inspect the DISCONNECTION mechanism and both OUTPUT FLANGE (part 4644303547) and OUTPUT FLANGE (part 4644303012) for wear, as these components share the same axial load path.
