Voorste aandrijfas - 4-cilinder brengt de aandrijving van de voorste uitgang van de LT230 verdeelbak over naar het differentieel van de vooras op 4-cilinder Defender 90 en 110 modellen tot VIN CA252578.

De as maakt aan beide uiteinden gebruik van kruiskoppelingen om de hoekbeweging van de vooras tijdens veerweg en sturen op te vangen. Een correcte asbalans en staat van de koppeling zijn essentieel om trillingen in de aandrijflijn te voorkomen.

Frequently asked questions

What does the front propshaft FRC5566 do?

The FRC5566 front propshaft transmits drive from the LT230 transfer box front output to the front axle differential on 4-cylinder Defenders. It uses a universal joint at each end to handle axle movement during suspension travel and steering. Without it, the front axle gets no drive.

Which Defenders does the FRC5566 front propshaft fit?

The FRC5566 fits 4-cylinder Defender 90 and 110 models up to VIN CA252578. It measures around 65cm collapsed, which helps confirm you've got the right shaft before fitting. Later vehicles and other engines use a different length, so check your VIN against the CA252578 break.

Why does a front propshaft fail and what are the warning signs?

A front propshaft like the FRC5566 typically fails through worn universal joints, which show up as a vibration or clonk on the move, often felt through the floor. Worn joints can also cause a knock when taking up drive. Don't leave a failing joint, as it can eventually let go.

Who makes the FRC5566 and is it guaranteed?

The FRC5566 front propshaft is made by Hardy Spicer, a long-established universal joint and propshaft manufacturer, and carries a 3 year guarantee. It's an OEM-quality shaft built to the original Land Rover specification for 4-cylinder Defender front drive.
