Description

When your 4WD starts making grinding noises or power isn’t transferring to the front wheels like it should, this housing might be what you need. The front axle drive shaft is what delivers power to those front wheels when you flip the 4WD switch, and when it’s worn or damaged, you might notice slipping in tough conditions, grinding noises when turning, or complete loss of front wheel drive – usually right when you need that traction most in muddy spring conditions or pulling heavy loads up hills.

What You’re Getting

Direct replacement housing designed specifically for your T6 and T7 series tractor’s front axle drive system
Precision-machined to handle the tremendous torque loads when you need maximum pulling power
Built to work with the complete front axle drive shaft kit (43876) if you’re doing a full rebuild
Heavy-duty construction that withstands the constant stress of 4WD engagement and field work

Built for Real Farm Work

Your New Holland T6 and T7 series tractors are serious workhorses built for everything from loader work around the farmyard to pulling wide implements through challenging field conditions. Whether you’re running precision guidance with a T7.210 Auto Command, handling daily loader work with a T6.160, or pulling wide tillage equipment with a T6090 Power Command, your front axle sees tremendous stress from constant steering motion, weight transfer during loader work, and torque loads from front-wheel assist. This housing is part of what keeps that power flowing where you need it.

Made to Last

This housing isn’t just a simple metal component – it’s a precisely engineered part that must handle tremendous torque while operating at various speeds, with specialized treatment that creates hard wearing surfaces while maintaining tough, flexible core strength that won’t fail under shock loads. The precision machining ensures proper alignment and sealing surfaces to keep gear oil in and contamination out.

Good to Know

This housing is part of a larger drive shaft assembly, so if you’re experiencing major front axle issues, you might want to consider the complete kit (43876) for a comprehensive repair. Installation requires attention to detail – first identify why the original failed, whether it’s a worn shaft, bad bearing, or other underlying issue that could destroy new components quickly. While you’re working on it, it’s a good time to check your front differential oil level and condition.
