Overview
The ZF 4644.183.008 LOOSE PARTS kit is a critical service component engineered specifically for the WG 200 Series transmission. This genuine OEM assembly includes all necessary loose hardware, fasteners, and small internal elements required to secure and seal key transmission sub-assemblies during a rebuild or major repair. Positioned within the main casing, this kit interfaces directly with the TRANSMISSION HOUSING (4644101249) and the TRANSMISSION HOUSING (4644301402), ensuring that all mating surfaces remain properly aligned and leak-free. The SKU 4644.183.008 is your guarantee of factory-spec fitment for WG200 gearboxes.
Symptoms of Failure
- Transmission fluid seepage at housing joints: When the loose parts kit components (gaskets, seals, or clips) degrade, you will notice oil weeping from the interface between the main housing and the COVER PLATE (4644301298).
- Rattling or loose internal components: Worn fasteners or missing retaining elements from this kit can cause internal parts to shift, producing a metallic rattle during gear engagement.
- Intermittent gear slippage under load: A compromised loose parts assembly may allow the O-RING (0634306323) to lose compression, leading to pressure loss and erratic clutch pack behavior.
- Increased vibration from the transmission bell housing: Loose mounting hardware from this kit can cause the entire transmission assembly to vibrate excessively, especially at highway speeds.
