ZF 2095.117.031 REAR AXLE HOUS. | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2095.117.031 REAR AXLE HOUSING is a critical structural component within the final drive assembly of heavy-duty construction machinery. This OEM genuine part encases the differential and axle shafts, providing the rigid support necessary to transfer torque from the transmission to the wheels. As the primary load-bearing shell, it maintains precise gear alignment under extreme stress. The SKU 2095.117.031 is engineered to ZF’s exacting tolerances, ensuring a direct fit and long service life in demanding environments.

Symptoms of Failure

When the rear axle housing wears out, operators often notice rear axle housing oil leaks at the seal mating surfaces, which can lead to low lubricant levels. Another common sign is excessive drivetrain noise during turns, caused by housing distortion that misaligns the differential gears. You may also experience vibration under load as the housing cracks or fatigues, and in severe cases, wheel hub wobble due to compromised bearing support. Replacing a damaged housing with the 2095.117.031 prevents catastrophic gear failure.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This rear axle housing is designed for ZF’s WG series powershift transmissions, specifically the WG180 and WG200 models used in wheel loaders, graders, and telehandlers. It also fits select WG150 and WG250 configurations where the rear axle mounting pattern matches. Always verify your transmission serial number against the 2095.117.031 casting code before installation.

During replacement, it is common to inspect the 2095109016: DIFFERENTIAL for wear, as the housing directly supports this assembly. The 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING must also be checked for pitting, as it seats inside the housing bore. For complete axle rebuilds, consider the 2095209037: DIFFERENTIAL and the 2095309059: DIFF.HOUSING which interface directly with this part.
