Swivel Pin Housing Shim - 0.13mm (0.005") for the front axle swivel pin housing assembly.

This precision shim is fitted between the swivel pin housing and the axle casing to set the correct pre-load on the swivel pin housing taper roller bearings. Correct bearing pre-load is essential for smooth steering operation and long bearing service life. Shims are typically used in combination across the available sizes to achieve the specified pre-load setting during overhaul or bearing replacement.

Frequently asked questions

What does the FRC2884 swivel pin housing shim do?

The FRC2884 is a 0.13 mm (0.005 inch) precision shim for the front axle swivel pin housing on Defender, Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic. Fitted between the swivel pin housing and the axle casing, it sets the correct pre-load on the swivel pin housing taper roller bearings during overhaul.

How many FRC2884 shims are needed for a swivel housing rebuild?

No fixed quantity applies. Shims are used in combination, selected to achieve the specified bearing pre-load measured with a dial gauge. The 0.13 mm FRC2884 is the thinner of the two standard sizes and is often combined with the 0.25 mm size FRC2885 to reach the target pre-load.

What is the difference between the FRC2884 and FRC2885 swivel pin housing shims?

The FRC2884 is the 0.13 mm (0.005 inch) shim and the FRC2885 is the 0.25 mm (0.010 inch) shim. Both fit the same swivel pin housing on Defender, Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic. During overhaul they are combined in varying quantities to achieve the correct bearing pre-load.
