Frequently asked questions

What does the rear Watts linkage do on a Discovery 2?
The rear Watts linkage locates the axle laterally on a Discovery 2, keeping it centred under the vehicle as the suspension moves. It's a pivot on the axle with a link running to each side of the chassis, which lets the axle move up and down without shifting sideways.
Where is the Watts linkage located?
It's under the rear of the Discovery 2, mounted on the rear axle casing with a central pivot and two arms reaching out to brackets on the chassis. You'll need the vehicle raised and the rear axle supported to get proper access to it.
What are the symptoms of a worn Watts linkage?
Vague rear-end feel, a sensation that the back of the vehicle is stepping out on uneven roads, and clonking from the rear are the usual signs. The pivot bush and link ends wear, letting the axle shift sideways under load. Corrosion at the chassis brackets is also common.
Is this a DIY job?
It's achievable with axle stands, standard hand tools and patience, but corrosion is the deciding factor. Fasteners in this part of the chassis are typically seized on high mileage vehicles, so allow for penetrating fluid and heat. Take torque settings from the workshop manual.
How do I confirm it fits my vehicle?
This linkage is listed for the Discovery 2 under part number RGD100550. Check your VIN and compare the mounting points on your own axle before ordering, since rear suspension arrangements differ between Land Rover models of that era.
