ZF 2095.117.045 REAR AXLE HOUS. | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2095.117.045 REAR AXLE HOUS. is a critical structural component within the final drive assembly of heavy-duty construction machinery. As the primary casing for the differential and axle shafts, this OEM genuine part (SKU: 2095.117.045) supports the entire rear axle load and houses the gear train that transfers torque from the transmission to the wheels. Manufactured from high-strength cast iron, it ensures precise alignment of internal components such as the 2095109020: DIFFERENTIAL and the 2095209037: DIFFERENTIAL, maintaining drivetrain integrity under extreme loads.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 2095.117.045 rear axle housing begins to fail, operators will notice distinct performance issues. Oil leaks around the axle seals are the most common early indicator, often caused by housing cracks or warping. Excessive gear whine or grinding noises from the rear axle signal that the housing has lost its structural rigidity, allowing the 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING to shift out of alignment. Vibration during acceleration typically points to a distorted housing that no longer supports the 2095309059: DIFF.HOUSING correctly. Finally, uneven tire wear or axle misalignment indicates the housing has suffered fatigue failure, requiring immediate replacement to prevent catastrophic drivetrain damage.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This rear axle housing is engineered for ZF’s heavy-duty powershift transmission series used in construction machinery. It is a direct fit for the ZF WG180 and ZF WG200 transmission models, commonly found in wheel loaders, graders, and telehandlers. The housing also supports the ZF WG150 and ZF WG250 series when paired with the correct differential carrier. Always verify your transmission model and axle configuration before installation.
