Drag Link Assembly - steering linkage, front axle.

The drag link transmits movement from the drop arm on the steering box output shaft across to the steering arm on the swivel housing, turning the box's rotary output into the lateral push and pull that steers the road wheels. It is the front tube of the two-tube steering linkage; the longer track rod behind it, which carries the steering damper bracket and runs between both swivel housings, is a separate part and should not be confused with this one.

Supplied as a complete assembly - the tube with its clamps and fixings and a ball joint threaded into each end - so nothing needs to be transferred from the old linkage. Nominal tube length is approximately 863 mm.

The threaded ends allow the linkage to be adjusted. Set the length before final tightening, check and reset front wheel alignment and steering wheel centring after fitting, and tighten the clamp bolts only once the adjustment is final.

Frequently asked questions

What is the NTC9607 drag link assembly?
The NTC9607 drag link is the steering rod that connects the steering box drop arm to the swivel hub, turning the wheels left and right on the Land Rover Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic. It comes as an assembly with the track rod ends. Part number NTC9607.
Where does the drag link fit on the vehicle?
The drag link runs across the front axle from the steering box drop arm to the swivel hub arm on the Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic. It's the rod that converts steering box movement into wheel steering. It's a steering safety part, so alignment must be checked after fitting.
What are the signs a drag link needs replacing?
A worn drag link typically shows as steering play, wandering, and knocking over bumps, usually from worn ball joint ends or torn boots. On the Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic it's an MOT check point. Because it's a steering safety part, replace it as soon as play or a split boot appears.
How do I confirm this drag link fits my vehicle?
This drag link fits the Discovery 1 (1989-1998, all engines from VIN JA018175) and Range Rover Classic (1992-1994 from VIN JA610294). Check your VIN falls in range before ordering. Part number NTC9607.
