Frequently asked questions

What is the steering damper on a Defender?

The steering damper is a hydraulic unit that damps steering vibration and kickback, mounted between the track rod and the chassis. This is the Girling steering damper for the Defender.

Which Defenders does this steering damper fit?

This steering damper fits the Defender 1987-2006 and the Defender 2007-2016 (from VIN 7A000001). It mounts to the track rod and chassis on those models.

Why do steering dampers fail?

Steering dampers fail when they leak oil and lose damping, which lets steering wobble or shimmy build up, sometimes felt as a shudder through the wheel. Oil weeping on the body of the damper is the usual sign.

Is NTC1165 an alternative to this steering damper?

NTC1165 is a listed alternative code for this steering damper. Confirm the mounting eyes and length match your Defender before fitting.

Can the steering damper be fitted at home?

The steering damper is typically a straightforward DIY fit, unbolting each end and swapping it over. Check the mounting bushes at the same time so the new damper works against solid mounts.
