Independent suspension axle and final reduction gear for special-purpose vehicles such as a armored vehicles are almost imported in Germany etc. so, developing them is necessary to save cost. In severe condition (open fields, water surface driving, obstacle pass), special-purpose vehicles must work well. Drop box, axle and final reduction gear performed static analysis. We know that is possible weight reduction. The purpose of this paper is to find out the optimal shape of final reduction gear's case by means of response surface methodology. The response surface method is the statistical method which can be applied to the non-sensitivity based optimization. The response surface which is constructed by the least square method contains only the polynomial terms so that the global maximum and minimum points are easily obtained.

The final reduction drive in tactical vehicles has a wear-pad that helps to maintain adequate end floating when the hub assay operates. The input axis and sun gear move repeatedly with the axis when tactical vehicle is operating. The hub assay is designed so that the wear pads won't seize during operation. Seizure of the wear pads during operation results in oil leakage. In our study, the fault mechanism was analyzed to prevent the seizure of the wear pads and an optimal design for the shape and material of the wear-pad was explored. We then observed the changes in temperature, shape, and material of several important parts.
