A travel assembly, for example, suited for arrangement on a vehicle such as a mining dump truck, is provided with a travel motor, a planetary speed reduction mechanism for transmitting rotation of the travel motor at a lower rotational speed, a spindle forming an axle, and a wheel supported on the spindle via a tapered roller bearing and rotatable by the planetary speed reduction mechanism. The planetary speed reduction mechanism includes a sun gear rotatable by rotation of a shaft of the travel motor, planet gears for rotating the wheel in response to rotation of the sun gear, stepped pins forming rotary shafts for the planet gears, a carrier for holding the stepped pins thereon, and bolts for fixedly securing the stepped pins on the carrier. The travel assembly is provided with a spline connection connecting the spindle and the carrier with each other and a limiting member for limiting movements of the bolts in a direction toward the tapered roller bearing.
