Frequently asked questions

What is the steering shaft assembly and what does it do?
The steering shaft assembly (NTC8478) is the intermediate shaft linking the steering column to the steering box. It transmits rotation from the steering wheel to the box input, using upper and lower universal joints to carry the drive through the angular offset between column and box.
Where does this steering shaft fit?
This steering shaft sits between the steering column and steering box on the Land Rover Discovery 1 (1989-1998) and Range Rover Classic. It carries upper and lower universal joints, so play or notchiness in those joints usually means the shaft needs replacing.
How do I confirm this steering shaft fits my vehicle?
Confirm fitment using your VIN, as the steering shaft changed across the Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic build runs. This part covers specific chassis ranges within those models, so check your VIN against the listed range before ordering.
Which earlier part numbers does this cross-reference?
This steering shaft (NTC8478) cross-references the earlier numbers RTC5876, NRC5619 and NRC7863. If your vehicle's records list one of those codes, NTC8478 is the equivalent replacement for the same column-to-box application.
