Abstract
A bearing of an idler gear of an all-wheel transfer transmission that mates with a drive gear wheel and an output gear wheel to one vehicle axle is provided with a bush that is clamped in between two housing walls. The idler gear is disposed on tapered roller bearings which are disposed on the bush. A screw that passes centrally through the bush is tightened by a nut and as a result braces the inner races of the tapered roller bearings and places the tapered rollers without play against the running surfaces of the idler gear.
