Shaft - Steering for Discovery 3 (2005 – 2009) RHD (From 6A399496) – LR071146
Product Description
The steering shaft transmits rotational input from the steering column to the steering rack, forming a critical mechanical link in the steering system. On Discovery 3 and Range Rover Sport models, wear or damage to this shaft - often presenting as steering play, knocking, or vibration through the wheel - requires accurate replacement to restore precise steering response. Using the correct shaft for the specific build date and drivetrain configuration is essential, as shaft design varies between production phases.
