ZF 2094.298.039 REAR AXLE HOUS. | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2094.298.039 REAR AXLE HOUS. is a critical structural component within the final drive assembly of heavy-duty construction machinery transmissions. This OEM genuine part encloses the differential and axle shafts, providing the rigid mounting surface necessary to transfer torque from the driveline to the wheels. As a load-bearing housing, it protects internal gears and bearings from contamination while maintaining precise alignment under extreme stress. The SKU 2094.298.039 is specifically engineered for ZF powershift transmissions used in wheel loaders, graders, and dump trucks, where it interfaces directly with the 2094101017: TRANSMISSION HOUSING to form a sealed drivetrain unit.

Symptoms of Failure

• Rear axle housing oil leaks at flange joints — When the 2094.298.039 housing develops stress cracks or warping, lubricant seeps past the 0634303085: O-RING and gasket surfaces, causing visible drips under the machine.
• Unusual whining or grinding from the rear axle — A deformed housing misaligns the differential bearings, generating metallic noise during turns or under load—a classic sign of housing fatigue.
• Premature tire wear and vibration — Bent axle housing flanges cause tracking issues, leading to uneven tread wear and chassis shudder at operating speeds.
• Contaminated gear oil with metal particles — Cracks in the housing allow debris ingress, accelerating wear on the 0750111371: SHAFT SEAL and internal components.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This rear axle housing is designed for ZF WG-series powershift transmissions commonly found in construction equipment. It is a direct fit for the WG180, WG200, and WG250 models used in Volvo, Caterpillar, and Komatsu wheel loaders. The housing also integrates with the 2094301069: HOUSING and 2094298054: HOUSING to complete the rear drivetrain assembly. Always verify the 0636302008: SCREW PLUG torque specifications during installation to prevent thread damage.
