The Transmission assist support is a critical mounting component that stabilises the gearbox and reduces driveline stress on the HOWO A7 8X4 heavy truck. This robust support system ensures accurate alignment between the transmission and the engine, minimising wear on shafts and bearings. As part of the vehicle’s powertrain mounting solution, the Transmission assist support directly contributes to smooth gear changes and extended component life.
At howo Parts, we engineer the Transmission assist support using high-strength steel and precision fasteners, including the Left bracket, Beam plate, Rubber block, Shim, Hex fangle nut, Bracket, Hex bolt, Flat washer, and 2 type full metal Hex nut. Each element is selected for its ability to withstand vibration, torque reaction, and thermal expansion while maintaining a secure and durable connection.
The Transmission assist support is designed to accommodate the dynamic forces generated during acceleration, braking, and cornering. Its modular construction allows for straightforward installation and adjustment, ensuring that the transmission remains correctly positioned throughout the vehicle’s service life. With this support, fleet operators can expect improved shift quality, reduced noise, and lower maintenance costs over millions of kilometres.
The Left bracket is a sturdy mounting plate that attaches the transmission support to the left side of the chassis frame. It features precisely located holes for bolt attachment and provides a rigid anchor point.
Manufactured from hot-rolled steel and finished with a corrosion-resistant coating, the Left bracket withstands harsh underbody conditions and resists fatigue cracking.
Its design incorporates a slight offset to align with the transmission’s mounting axis, ensuring proper load distribution and reducing bending moments on the fasteners.
The Beam plate is a flat structural member that connects the left and right brackets, forming a rigid crossmember under the transmission. It increases the overall stiffness of the support system.
Fabricated from high-tensile steel plate, the Beam plate is laser-cut and formed to exact dimensions, ensuring a perfect fit between the frame rails without interference.
This component also provides additional mounting surfaces for auxiliary equipment, such as sensors or cable guides, enhancing the versatility of the assembly.
The Rubber block is an elastomeric isolator that absorbs vibration and shock loads from the transmission. It is placed between the support brackets and the transmission housing.
Made from high-grade natural rubber compounded for oil and heat resistance, the Rubber block maintains its damping properties over a wide temperature range.
Its cylindrical shape with central holes allows for easy mounting and provides a controlled deflection that reduces noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) inside the cabin.
The Shim is a thin, flat piece of metal used to adjust the vertical alignment of the transmission relative to the frame. It compensates for manufacturing tolerances and chassis sag.
Available in various thicknesses, the Shim is placed under the mounting feet to achieve the correct driveline angle, preventing excessive wear on universal joints and bearings.
Its simple design allows for quick installation during initial assembly or service adjustments, ensuring optimal driveline geometry at all times.
The Hex fangle nut is a specialised fastener with a built-in flange that distributes load over a larger area, reducing the risk of surface indentation. It is used in conjunction with hex bolts.
This nut features a serrated bearing surface that provides a locking action, preventing loosening due to vibration. Its hex shape allows for easy tightening with standard wrenches.
Made from high-strength steel and zinc-plated, the Hex fangle nut offers excellent corrosion resistance and reliable clamping force in the Transmission assist support.
The Bracket is a general-purpose mounting element that serves as a connection point between the transmission and the frame. It is designed to accommodate various bolt patterns and orientations.
Stamped from heavy-gauge steel, the Bracket is reinforced with ribs and gussets to increase its load-carrying capacity while keeping weight to a minimum.
Its versatility makes it suitable for both original equipment and aftermarket installations, providing a reliable interface for the Transmission assist support system.
The Hex bolt is the primary fastening element used throughout the Transmission assist support. Its six-sided head enables high torque application with standard sockets and wrenches.
Manufactured from quenched and tempered carbon steel, the Hex bolt offers exceptional tensile strength and shear resistance, ensuring secure connections under dynamic loads.
Available in multiple lengths and thread pitches, the Hex bolt is chosen to match each specific mounting point, providing optimal clamp force and thread engagement.
The Flat washer is a simple circular disc placed under the bolt head or nut to spread the clamping load and protect the surface from damage. It also prevents galling during tightening.
Made from hardened steel with a smooth finish, the Flat washer ensures even pressure distribution, reducing the risk of loosening and prolonging the life of the bolted joint.
In the Transmission assist support, Flat washers are used in combination with Hex bolts and nuts to achieve reliable, long-lasting connections.
The 2 type full metal Hex nut is a prevailing-torque locking nut that provides a secure, reusable fastening solution. Its all-metal construction ensures high-temperature performance.
This nut achieves its locking action through a controlled deformation of the thread profile, creating a consistent frictional force that resists loosening under severe vibration.
It is ideal for critical joints in the Transmission assist support, where safety and reliability are paramount, and can be reused multiple times without losing its locking ability.
