Overview
The ZF 4699.295.124 STEERING GEAR SET is a critical OEM genuine component engineered for the WG100, WG130, and WG131 transmission series. This precision-machined gear set governs the steering response within the transfer case or final drive assembly, converting rotational input from the steering column into the lateral movement required for articulated steering systems. As a core element of the steering gearbox, it interfaces directly with the 4699101043: HOUSING to maintain precise alignment and load distribution. The SKU 4699.295.124 is manufactured to ZF’s original tolerances, ensuring seamless integration and long service life in heavy-duty industrial applications.
Symptoms of Failure
- Steering gear slipping under load: When the gear set wears, operators may experience intermittent loss of steering torque, particularly during low-speed maneuvers or when turning against resistance.
- Excessive backlash or free play: Worn teeth on the 4699.295.124 set cause a noticeable delay between steering wheel input and machine response, often accompanied by a clunking noise.
- Oil leaks around the steering housing: Degraded gear surfaces can damage seals, leading to hydraulic fluid seepage near the 4699102073: INPUT shaft connection point.
- Metallic debris in transmission fluid: Flaking or pitting on the gear teeth generates fine metal particles, which can be detected during routine oil changes and indicates imminent failure.

Compatibility
This steering gear set is specifically designed for ZF WG-series transmissions, including the WG100, WG130, and WG131 models. It is also compatible with the WG180 and WG200 series when used in conjunction with the correct 4699103026: OUTPUT shaft assembly. For proper installation, the gear set must be paired with the 4699004008: GK25 coupling kit to ensure correct spline engagement. Always verify your transmission’s serial number against ZF’s compatibility chart before ordering.
