Detailed Description

Dorman 986-906 is a rear drive shaft assembly built for Land Rover driveline replacement service. It is engineered for 2013-2016 Land Rover Range Rover rear applications and 2014-2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport rear applications with a 2 speed transfer case. The assembly uses steel construction, is pre-greased, and arrives pre-balanced to reduce setup time during installation. With new yokes, tubes, CV joints, and universal joints, this drive shaft supports a complete repair rather than a partial rebuild. This part cross-references Land Rover OE numbers LR034508 and LR058371 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Vibration from a worn or out-of-balance rear driveshaft
• Clunking or driveline noise from worn U-joints
• Binding or rough operation from worn CV joints
• Driveline play caused by damaged yokes or shaft components
• Service issues on Range Rover and Range Rover Sport rear driveline assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear application and transfer case configuration before installation. This part uses a bolt-on end at one side and a splined end at the other, with a collapsed length of 50 in and a drive shaft length of 50.625 in. Confirm driveline measurements and mounting points against the original shaft before final tightening. Fits 2013-2016 Land Rover Range Rover, rear. Fits 2014-2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, rear with 2 speed transfer case.

Quality Assurance

Dorman supplies this assembly as a standard replacement driveline component with new internal and external wear items already installed. The pre-balanced, pre-greased construction supports consistent fitment and reduces the need to rebuild the original shaft during service.
