ZF 2095.117.029 REAR AXLE HOUS. | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2095.117.029 REAR AXLE HOUSING is a structural core component within heavy-duty construction machinery drivelines. This OEM genuine part encloses the final drive gearset and differential assembly, providing the rigid mounting point for axle shafts and wheel hubs. As the primary load-bearing shell, it maintains precise gear alignment under extreme torque and shock loads. The SKU 2095.117.029 is specifically engineered for ZF transaxle systems, acting as the sealed chamber that contains lubricant and protects internal rotating elements from debris and contamination.

Symptoms of Failure

• Visible oil seepage from axle housing seals: Cracks or porosity in the housing casting often lead to gradual lubricant loss, visible as wet patches around the differential mounting flange or axle tube ends.
• Abnormal whining or grinding during turns: A distorted housing alters the mesh pattern of the 2095109015: DIFFERENTIAL gears, producing a cyclic noise that intensifies under load.
• Premature bearing failure and shaft play: Housing bore wear allows the 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING to shift, causing excessive radial clearance and uneven tire wear.
• Contaminated gear oil with metallic particles: Internal fractures shed ferrous debris into the lubricant, which can be detected during routine oil analysis or when draining the axle.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This rear axle housing is designed for integration with ZF WG180, WG200, and WG310 series power-shift transmissions commonly found in wheel loaders, telehandlers, and graders. It directly interfaces with the 2095209037: DIFFERENTIAL carrier assembly and the 2095309059: DIFF.HOUSING unit. The housing accepts standard ZF axle shafts and is compatible with both open and limited-slip differential configurations used in 10- to 18-ton construction vehicles.
