How to identify the right transmission spare part
- Original reference (OEM): Locate the numeric code engraved on the old part or in the technical manual to match it against our product sheets.
- Length measurements: Check the total length of the drive shaft (compressed and extended) to ensure it fits the chassis wheelbase distance.
- Mounting type: Check the diameter of the flanges and the number of fixing holes to ensure installation without play or adaptations.
- Universal joint specifications: Check the size and type of articulation, critical elements to withstand the cardan working angle.
Frequently asked questions
What symptoms indicate that I need to replace the cardan drive shaft?
The most common failure indicators include strong vibrations in the cab that increase with speed, metallic noises when moving off or changing gear, and visible play in the universal joints or the centre support of the drive shaft.
How can I confirm compatibility with my FIAT model?
The safest way is to check the manufacturer cross-reference shown in the description of each item. It is also advisable to measure the physical part and check the year and series of the industrial vehicle to avoid mistakes when selecting the spare part.
Do these spare parts include the fixing elements?
Generally, the drive shafts are supplied as assembled and balanced units. The bolts and mounting elements to the differential or gearbox are usually sold separately, so we recommend checking the specific technical sheet for each product before placing the order.
Is it necessary to balance the cardan before fitting it?
Our new spare parts usually come factory-balanced to ensure smooth operation. However, if a partial repair or replacement of individual components is carried out, it is essential to check dynamic balancing to avoid future vibrations that could damage the system.
