Frequently asked questions

What is the Steering Column Shear Bolt for?
The Steering Column Shear Bolt secures the steering column mounting clamp to its bracket. The head is designed to shear off once the correct install torque is reached, leaving nothing to grip afterwards. It's an anti-theft fixing for the column lock, used on Land Rover Defender and Range Rover Classic columns.
Can the steering column shear bolt be reused?
No, the shear bolt is single-use by design. Once fitted, the head shears off, so it can't be undone or reused. Fit a new one whenever the steering column clamp or lock assembly is disturbed. Reusing an old shear bolt isn't possible because there's no head left to drive.
How many shear bolts are needed for the column clamp?
The steering column clamp usually takes two shear bolts, though this varies by model and clamp design. They're sold individually, so order the quantity your column mounting needs. Check your existing clamp to confirm how many shear bolts it uses before ordering.
Which models and VIN range does this shear bolt cover?
This shear bolt covers the Range Rover Classic from 1986 to 1991, up to VIN HA610293, and the Land Rover Defender from 1987 to 2006. Use your VIN to confirm the exact fitment, as steering column mountings changed across the model range.
