extremo rueda

English translation: wheel end assembly

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:extremo rueda
English translation:wheel end assembly

Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / Forklift truck
Spanish term or phrase: extremo rueda
From the maintenance chapter of a user manual for a telehandler, listing the type and capacity of oils and lubricants in the different parts of the vehicle:

"-Tipo aceite ejes Mobilfluid Shell 10W-30

Capacidad caja diferencial (eje delantero) 8 lt
Capacidad caja diferencial (eje trasero) 7.8 lt
Capacidad *extremo rueda* 0.65 lt"

I'm having trouble with 'extremo rueda'. Would this be wheel end? Is it simply the location of another lubrication point/tank? Elsewhere in the text, the user is reminded to check the oil level at/in this part:

"Revisar los niveles de aceite *extremo ruedas*"

Spanish from Spain for British English audience preferred.

Many thanks!
