Zusammenfassung:Herein an axle assembly (2) and a heavy load vehicle are disclosed. The axle assembly comprises an interaxle differential (7) configured to distribute torque to a first axle (3) and a second axle. The interaxle differential comprises an input shaft (6) and an output shaft (8). A first gear wheel (10) is journaled in a first bearing (12) about the input shaft (6). The input shaft (6) is journaled in relation to the output shaft (8) via a tapered roller bearing (18) having a small end (19) and a large end (21). A lubricant receiving space (20) is fluidly connected to the small end (19) of the tapered roller bearing (18), and the large end (21) of tapered roller bearing (18) is fluidly connected to the first bearing (12). Thus, the first bearing is lubricated when there exists a difference in rotational speed between the input and output shafts.
