Detailed Description

Hotbray QHG000040ES is a steering drag link for the center steering linkage on the Land Rover Discovery. The part uses a steel drag link design with a rubber boot and a 12.0 mm stud thread diameter, along with a 12.5 mm mounting hole diameter. Its push rod configuration and fixed mounting layout support steering system repair where the original linkage has wear, looseness, or joint damage. This part cross-references Delphi TL517 and V489512 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

  • Restoring steering linkage stability when the original drag link is worn.
  • Reducing steering play caused by damaged joints or mounting wear.
  • Replacing a bent or corroded steering linkage component.
  • Addressing noise or looseness in the center steering connection.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify center steering linkage fitment before installation on the Land Rover Discovery. Match the stud thread diameter, mounting hole diameter, and push rod configuration to the removed part. Inspect adjacent steering components for wear so the repair is completed with consistent steering response.

Quality Assurance

Hotbray QHG000040ES is specified with steel construction and a protective boot for steering service. Confirm all dimensions and fitment details against the vehicle application before installation.
