Abstract
A transmission comprising a housing having one and the other longitudinal end walls. The other longitudinal end wall includes an upper wall section and a lower wall section offset from the upper wall section toward the one longitudinal end wall to define a step surface between the upper and lower wall sections. A counter shaft has one and the other axial ends rotatably supported in the one longitudinal end wall and by the bearing, respectively. A chamber is formed in the lower wall section with the bearing exposed to the chamber. A passage communicates the step surface and the chamber with each other to introduce lubricating oil from the step surface into the chamber for lubricating the bearing.
