REAR AXLE AND FINAL DRIVE
1
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The welded steel rear axle casing houses a separate
spiral bevel type differential unit, which is off set to the
right of the vehicle centre line. The differential unit
drives the rear wheels via the axle shafts and fully
floating hubs which are mounted on tapered roller
bearings.
Lubrication
The differential is lubricated with oil and the hub
bearings with grease. The hub bearings are fittedwith inner and outer seals. The outer seals prevent
the differential oil mixing with the hub grease and the
inner seals prevent dirt ingress into the hub.
Ventilation
Ventilation of the hub bearings is through the outer oil
seals and the differential ventilation pipe, which
terminates at a high level.
The wheel hubs on axles with ABS brakes share the
same construction to non ABS axles except for the
addition of a sensor ring 11 on the brake disc 10.
