Dovetail, male half, for the rear end door, part of the rear door lock and alignment assembly.

The male dovetail is the tapered wedge that engages the matching female dovetail on the body as the door closes, centring and locating the door so the lock and striker align cleanly. It carries shear load across the door aperture, holding the closed door firmly and reducing movement and rattle.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ALR6306 male dovetail and what does it do?
The ALR6306 male dovetail is the tapered wedge for the rear end door on the Land Rover Discovery 1. It engages the matching female dovetail on the body as the door closes, centring and locating the door so the lock and striker align cleanly. It also carries shear load across the aperture to reduce rattle.
What's the difference between the male and female dovetail?
The male dovetail is the tapered wedge half that engages the female dovetail socket on the body. This part, ALR6306, is the male half only. If the worn part is the receiving socket on the body side, you'll need the female dovetail instead. Check which half is damaged before ordering.

This dovetail fits the Land Rover Discovery 1 (1989-1998), rear end door lock section, from VIN FA393361 to WA799999. Use your VIN to confirm your vehicle falls within that range before ordering.
Can the male dovetail be fitted at home?
