This bearing is subject to continuous rotational load and will wear over time, with failure typically presenting as whining or rumbling noises from the transfer box, particularly under load. Correct replacement with a properly specified bearing is essential to prevent shaft misalignment and accelerated gear wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement intermediate shaft bearing specifically dimensioned for the LT230 transfer case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits LT230 units up to transfer box serial number (T) 551443G - verify your serial number before ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets original Land Rover OEM specification for the STC3185 part number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen replacing this bearing, inspect the intermediate shaft and surrounding seals for wear and replace as necessary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits Defender (1986–2006) with LT230 transfer box up to serial number (T) 551443G, Defender (2007 onwards) with LT230 up to serial 7A000001, Discovery 1 (1989–1998), and Discovery 2 (1998–2004), all fitted with the LT230 transfer box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure about fitment?
