ZF 0730.300.824 SPACER RING for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0730.300.824 SPACER RING is a precision-machined OEM genuine component engineered specifically for the WG200 series transmission. This spacer ring functions as a critical axial positioning element within the planetary gearset assembly, maintaining exact clearances between rotating and stationary components. Installed directly on the output shaft, the SKU 0730.300.824 ensures that adjacent gears, bearings, and clutches remain in their designated locations under high-torque loads. Without this spacer, internal clearances can shift, leading to premature wear on surrounding parts such as the 4460165051: CONSOLE and the 4460368311: CONSOLE, both of which rely on precise spacing for proper alignment.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 0730.300.824 SPACER RING wears or becomes deformed, several distinct failure modes emerge. Oil leaks at the output shaft seal are common, as the spacer ring no longer supports the seal lip correctly, allowing transmission fluid to escape. Gear slipping under load occurs because the spacer’s reduced thickness alters clutch pack clearances, causing delayed engagement. Abnormal whining or grinding noises from the planetary gearset indicate that the spacer ring has lost its dimensional integrity, allowing metal-on-metal contact. Vibration during acceleration is another telltale sign, as the spacer ring’s failure permits shaft runout that affects the 0636011429: HEXAGON SCREW and 0730100365: WASHER assemblies.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This spacer ring is primarily designed for the ZF WG200 series transmissions, including the WG180, WG200, and WG210 models. It is also compatible with select ZF off-highway transmissions used in construction and agricultural equipment, such as the WG150 and WG160 variants. The 0730.300.824 part fits directly into the output shaft assembly and is interchangeable with earlier OEM revisions. Always verify that the 4460165051: CONSOLE and 4460368311: CONSOLE are inspected when replacing this spacer, as misalignment can cascade into further damage.
