Abstract: The present invention provides a gear oil composition for vehicle driving systems, more specifically a gear oil composition for vehicle final reduction gears, which can improve a fuel-saving effect by reducing its viscosity and, at the same time, secure bearing fatigue life characteristics. The gear oil composition comprises a base oil (A) and another base oil (B), described below, and at least one species of additive for gear oil, and has a kinematic viscosity of 80 mm2/s or less at 40° C.: (A): a mineral-based oil and/or hydrocarbon-based synthetic oil having a kinematic viscosity of 3.5 to 7 mm2/s at 100° C., and (B): a mineral-based oil and/or hydrocarbon-based synthetic oil having a kinematic viscosity of 20 to 52 mm2/s at 100° C.

Abstract: In a bevel gear transmission (1), in a rotating shaft (3) connected to a bevel pinion (2), a portion distanced from the bevel pinion (2), in which a lubricating condition is severe, is supported by an angular ball bearing (6) with which lubrication performance is easily ensured, and the other portion is supported by a tapered roller bearing (5) which exhibits superior fatigue durability, load withstanding ability and rigidity.

Abstract: In a trans-axle casing having an open end closed by a removable cover member secured thereto, a differential gear unit is rotatably supported at its side-journals by a pair of tapered roller bearings which are removably coupled within each cylindrical bore in a pair of axially spaced carrier portions of the casing. The carrier portions each are formed with a radial slit which extends inwardly from an upright seating face of the casing and opens into an annular groove in the cylindrical bore. A shim plate of substantially rectangular shape is inserted into each of the carrier portions through the radial slit and engaged at a semi-circular inner end thereof with the annular groove to retain each of the bearings in place by engagement therewith, the shim plate being formed in a predetermined length to be retained in place by engagement with the cover member of the casing at its outer end when it has been fully engaged at its inner end with the annular groove.
