Frequently asked questions

What is the Steering Box Joint Washer 0.005 used for?
The Steering Box Joint Washer is a 0.005 inch selective shim fitted at the steering box joint face. It sets the correct preload and end float when the steering box is assembled. It is used on Land Rover Series 2, 2A, 3 and older Defender steering boxes.
How do I know which washer thickness I need?
This is the 0.005 inch shim, one of a range of thicknesses used at the steering box joint. The right thickness is selected during assembly to bring the preload and end float to specification, so the figure you need depends on the clearance measured on your own steering box.
Which Land Rovers does this steering box shim fit?
This 0.005 inch joint washer fits the steering box on Land Rover Series 2, 2A and 3, and older Defender models. It is a setting shim rather than a wearing part, so it is selected to suit the clearance in the box being rebuilt rather than fitted to a fixed quantity.
