ZF 2095.268.017 SHAFT for WG100/WG130/WG131 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 2095.268.017 SHAFT is a precision-machined component engineered for the internal gear train of the WG100, WG130, and WG131 heavy-duty transmissions. This OEM genuine part serves as the primary rotational axis for specific gear clusters, ensuring torque is transferred smoothly from the input stage to the planetary sets. The SKU 2095.268.017 sits directly within the main shaft assembly, interfacing with the 0750117075: TAPER ROLLER BEARING to manage axial and radial loads during high-stress operation. Without this shaft, the transmission cannot maintain gear alignment, making it critical for driveline integrity.

Symptoms of Failure

• Transmission gear grinding under load: A worn ZF 2095.268.017 shaft often causes harsh engagement noises when accelerating, particularly in lower gears, as the splines lose their tolerance.
• Intermittent power loss during shifting: If this shaft develops surface fatigue, you may experience a sudden loss of torque delivery, often misdiagnosed as clutch slip.
• Metallic debris in the oil pan: Flaking or pitting on the shaft surface introduces fine steel particles into the lubrication circuit, accelerating wear on the 5838109007: DIFFERENTIAL and adjacent bearings.
• Excessive axial play in the output housing: A bent or fractured shaft allows the gear stack to shift, causing visible movement at the flange and eventual oil seal failure.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This shaft is factory-specified for the ZF WG100, WG130, and WG131 series transmissions. It is also a direct fit for certain WG180 and WG200 variants that share the same gear center distance, though cross-referencing the housing casting number is recommended. The shaft works in concert with the 2095209019: DIFFERENTIAL to distribute torque to the output planetaries. For secure retention, the assembly requires the 0631329086: SPRING PIN to lock the shaft into the carrier hub.
