ZF 2095.056.002 REAR AXLE | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2095.056.002 REAR AXLE is a critical OEM genuine component engineered for the final drive assembly in heavy-duty construction machinery. This robust axle transmits torque from the differential to the wheel hubs, ensuring reliable power delivery under extreme loads. As a factory-spec replacement, the SKU 2095.056.002 integrates seamlessly with ZF’s planetary gear sets, providing the structural backbone for the entire rear drivetrain. When paired with a functioning 2095109013: DIFFERENTIAL, this axle maintains precise wheel speed synchronization during demanding excavation and loading operations.

Symptoms of Failure

• Persistent oil seepage at the hub seal: Worn axle journals allow lubricant to bypass the seal, creating visible drips near the wheel end. This is a common long-tail search query for “ZF rear axle oil leak repair.”
• Metallic grinding during turns: Excessive play in the axle shaft causes contact between the splines and the differential side gears, producing a distinct grinding noise. Search for “ZF axle grinding noise when turning.”
• Uneven tire wear patterns: A bent or fatigued rear axle leads to misalignment, accelerating tread wear on one side. This symptom is often searched as “construction machinery uneven tire wear cause.”
• Vibration under load: Cracks or fatigue in the axle housing transmit vibration through the chassis, especially when the machine is under full torque. Look for “ZF axle vibration under load fix.”

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This rear axle is designed for ZF’s WG180, WG200, and WG310 series transmissions commonly found in wheel loaders, telehandlers, and graders. It directly replaces the original axle in the final drive housing. For a complete rebuild, inspect the 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING and the 2095209037: DIFFERENTIAL for wear. The axle also interfaces with the 2095309059: DIFF.HOUSING to ensure proper gear alignment.
