ZF 2094.114.008 CRAWLER | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2094.114.008 CRAWLER is an OEM genuine component engineered for the planetary gearset and final drive assembly within heavy-duty ZF transmissions. This crawler gear functions as a critical torque-transfer element, converting hydraulic power into mechanical motion for tracked construction machinery. As part number 2094.114.008, it sits directly between the transmission housing and the output shaft, ensuring smooth engagement under extreme loads. This part is precision-machined to OEM tolerances, making it essential for maintaining drivetrain integrity in excavators and dozers. The SKU 2094.114.008 is a direct replacement for worn units, restoring original performance without modification.

Symptoms of Failure

• Intermittent track slippage under load: When the crawler gear teeth wear unevenly, the drive sprocket loses positive engagement, causing the machine to hesitate or jerk during heavy digging or climbing.
• Metallic grinding noise from the final drive: Worn gear surfaces produce a distinct high-pitched whine or grinding sound, particularly during turns or when reversing direction.
• Oil contamination with metallic debris: As the crawler gear deteriorates, fine steel particles accumulate in the transmission fluid, visible during routine oil changes as a silver or gray sheen.
• Reduced travel speed despite engine RPM: A failing 2094.114.008 cannot transmit full torque, leading to sluggish acceleration and a noticeable drop in top speed on flat terrain.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This crawler gear is designed for integration into ZF’s WG series powershift transmissions, specifically the WG180, WG200, and WG220 models. It also fits select variants of the ZF 4WG-200 and ZF 6WG-250 used in crawler dozers and loaders. Always verify your transmission serial number against the OEM parts catalog before installation.

During replacement, the 2094.114.008 must be installed within the TRANSMISSION HOUSING (2094101018) to ensure correct gear alignment. The assembly also requires the HOUSING (2094301069) and HOUSING (2094298054) to seal the drivetrain chamber. A COVER (2094301071) is mounted over the gear stack to prevent contamination. For a complete overhaul, pair this crawler with a new GASKET (2094301030) and SHAFT SEAL (0750111371) to eliminate oil leaks.
