Features of GX-AFTER 3590373 Shaft

793mm Length: Specific shaft dimension, distinguishing it from shorter versions used in other transmission configurations (e.g., Powershift).
Motion Compensation: Built-in slip member allows the shaft to work flexibly with the movement of the front axle on the center pivot.
Durable U-Joints: The use of high-class needle bearings ensures smooth torque transmission without play or knocking.
Flange Standard: 125.5 mm connection diameter guarantees a perfect fit to the transmission output and axle input.

Application in CAT machinery

Machine Type Models / Series
Backhoe Loaders 416F, 416F2, 420F, 420F2, 422F, 427F2, 428F, 428F2, 430F, 432F, 432F2, 434F, 444F

The front shaft comes in different lengths depending on the transmission type (Manual vs Powershift). Be sure to measure the old shaft (793 mm compressed).

Related Parts and Hardware

We recommend using new mounting bolts of appropriate hardness class for installation. Regular grease maintenance of U-joints and the slip member is also required.

⚠️ Safety Warning

Driving with a shaft that has play in the U-joints or spline risks its breakage. A broken front shaft can damage the engine oil pan, hydraulic lines, or transmission housing, generating huge costs.

Part Role in the Machine and Failure Diagnostics

Shaft 3590373 is responsible for driving the front axle, crucial in rough terrain.

  • › Strong vibrations (shaft runout, worn U-joint bearings).
  • › Metallic clunks when starting (play on spline).
  • › Rust around U-joint caps (lack of lubrication, seizure).
  • › Shaft tube damage (dents, bending).

🔧 Expert Guide: Key Installation Tips

  1. Length Measurement: This model is 793 mm long. Shorter shafts (approx. 726 mm) exist for other transmissions. An error in selection will prevent installation. Measure the old shaft in the compressed position.
  2. Greasing: The new shaft requires greasing before operation. Pump grease into the U-joints and sliding connection until fresh grease appears.
  3. Flange Cleanliness: Before bolting, clean the contact surfaces on the transmission and axle from rust and dirt to avoid shaft runout.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the shaft balanced?

Yes, GX-AFTER shafts are factory dynamically balanced to ensure quiet and vibration-free drivetrain operation.

Does it fit Powershift transmission?

Powershift versions typically use a shorter shaft (726 mm, no. 3590381). This shaft (793 mm) is designed for a different configuration (usually manual/Synchro Shuttle). Check the length.

Are U-joints replaceable?

Yes, the shaft design allows for the replacement of just the U-joints in the future, reducing operating costs.
