The invention relates to a heavy-load type oil-gas spring independent suspension steering drive axle which comprises a central main reducing gear assembly, an upper cross arm, a lower cross arm, a hub reducing gear assembly, a double-rzeppa type constant velocity universal transmission shaft, a steering joint seat, an oil-gas spring and a steering rod system, wherein the central main reducing gear assembly is located in the center of the steering drive axle and fixedly connected to a frame, and structures of the heavy-load type oil-gas spring independent suspension steering drive axle at the left end and the right end of the central main reducing gear assembly are the same and symmetrically distributed. The steering joint seat is adopted, thus stress in the front, back, left and right directions of the whole steering drive axle trends to be more uniform and reasonable, the steering drive axle has higher traveling smoothness and better maneuverability, and the regulation of ground clearance can be realized at the same time of regulating the height of the frame. The upper cross arm and the lower cross arm of the heavy-load type oil-gas spring independent suspension steering drive axle are respectively of an integral structure, thereby improving the structural rigidity. Both ends of the upper cross arm and the lower cross arm are respectively connected with the steering joint seat and a main reducing gear shell through pin shafts, and the reasonable optimization of swing arm connection points ensures that the changes of wheel tracks and wheel inclination angles are the minimum when wheels jump up and down to the limit, thereby improving the controllabitity and the stability of a chassis.
