The performance testing of lubricants - in this paper commercial vehicle gear and rear axle oils - starts usually with laboratory tests followed by rig testing. Test stands using the original equipment like gear boxes allow to test the properties of an oil very dose to real field conditions with the possibility to run special load conditions with high repeatability. This fact gives the advantage over field tests. Based on given requirements and specifications of a car manufacturer test stands for gear box and rear axle testing were tailor-made designed. This paper describes the test stands in detail and the procedures of the lubricant testing.
