ZF 0750.116.208 BALL BEARING for WG65 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0750.116.208 BALL BEARING is a critical rotating component engineered specifically for the WG 65 Series transmission. Positioned within the main shaft assembly, this OEM genuine part ensures precise axial and radial support for gear clusters, reducing friction during high-torque operations. The SKU 0750.116.208 directly replaces worn bearings to restore original ZF tolerances, preventing premature wear on adjacent components like the TRANSMISSION HOUSING. Without this bearing, the entire gear train loses alignment, leading to cascading mechanical stress.

Symptoms of Failure

• Whining or grinding noise during gear engagement: A failing 0750.116.208 bearing produces a distinct metallic sound, especially under load. This is a common long-tail search query for “ZF WG65 bearing noise symptoms.”
• Vibration in the driveline at highway speeds: Worn ball bearings allow shaft play, causing rhythmic shaking. Operators often search “transmission vibration when accelerating ZF WG65.”
• Metal debris in transmission fluid: Spalling of the bearing race releases fine metallic particles. This triggers “ZF transmission metal shavings in oil” searches.
• Intermittent gear slipping or hard shifting: As the bearing loses structural integrity, gear alignment shifts, leading to “ZF WG65 slipping out of gear” complaints.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This ball bearing is primarily designed for the ZF WG 65 Series, but it also fits several other ZF transmission models that share the same shaft geometry. Compatible units include the WG180, WG200, WG210, and WG250 series. Always verify the bearing seat dimensions in your specific transmission housing before installation. When replacing this bearing, it is recommended to also inspect and replace the HEXAGON SCREW (0636011038) and HEXAGON SCREW (0636011118) that secure the bearing cover. For the output flange, the HEXAGON SCREW (0636016015) is often torqued to the same specification.
