The main parts of the front axle - differential, final drive gears and gearbox bearings - do not differ from the corresponding parts of the rear axle (see rear axle). The dimensions of the mating parts, control and adjustment operations also coincide. The crankcase of the front axle gearbox is closed from below and from the front with covers sealed with gaskets. The side gears on splines are connected to the housings of the internal hinges of the front wheel drives. Each of the two housings rests on a single-row ball bearing mounted in the gearbox housing. The bearings are closed with covers fixed on three studs and sealed with cardboard spacers. Together with the right cover, the front axle bracket is attached to the gearbox. A breather is pressed into the upper right part of the gearbox housing.
