Overview
The ZF 2095.117.035 REAR AXLE HOUSING is a critical structural component within heavy-duty construction machinery drivelines. This OEM genuine part encloses the differential assembly and final drive gears, providing rigid support for axle shafts while containing lubricant under high torque loads. As the primary load-bearing shell for the rear axle group, the housing (SKU: 2095.117.035) ensures precise gear alignment and protects internal components from contamination in demanding off-road environments. It interfaces directly with the transmission output and must maintain dimensional integrity to prevent driveline vibration.
Symptoms of Failure
- Oil seepage at axle tube seals: Cracks or porosity in the housing casting cause chronic lubricant loss, visible as wet patches near the differential mounting flange.
- Abnormal gear whine under load: Distortion of the housing bore shifts the 2095109019 DIFFERENTIAL alignment, creating uneven tooth contact and audible noise during acceleration.
- Premature bearing failure: Housing wear at the carrier bearing seats allows excessive play, rapidly destroying the 0750117075 TAPER ROLLER BEARING and adjacent components.
- Wheel-end vibration: A cracked housing flange causes the axle assembly to wobble, transmitting harsh vibration through the chassis at operating speeds.

Compatibility
This rear axle housing is engineered for ZF WG180, WG200, and WG250 powershift transmission families used in wheel loaders, graders, and telehandlers. It specifically accommodates the 2095209037 DIFFERENTIAL carrier assembly and the 2095309059 DIFF.HOUSING unit. Always verify axle ratio and housing casting numbers before installation, as variations exist between standard and heavy-duty configurations.
