Rear Top Shock Mount Relocator - repositions the upper rear shock absorber mounting 50 mm (2 in) lower on the chassis.

Dropping the top mount increases the available rear axle droop, releasing additional suspension articulation off-road. Supplied as zinc-plated relocation plates with fixings; the original mounting brackets are retained rather than replaced.

Fitting bump stop spacers (TF515) alongside is advised to stop the shock absorbers over-extending at full droop.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TF518 rear top shock mount relocator for?
The TF518 rear top shock mount relocator lowers the upper rear shock absorber mounting point on the chassis to free additional rear axle droop and articulation off-road. It's supplied as zinc-plated relocation plates with fixings, and the original mounting brackets are retained rather than replaced.
Do I need anything else when fitting the TF518?
Yes, fitting bump stop spacers (TF515, Bump Stop Spacer - Pair) alongside the TF518 is advised to stop the rear shock absorbers over-extending at full droop. Without them the lowered top mount can let the dampers pull past their safe length.
Can the TF518 be fitted at home?
The TF518 bolts on using the supplied relocation plates and fixings, reusing the original brackets, so it's typically a DIY job with common hand tools. Working on axle stands with the suspension supported makes lining up the lower mounting position easier.
Which Land Rovers does the TF518 fit?
The TF518 fits the Land Rover Defender up to 2016, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic. It's intended for vehicles running extended-travel rear suspension where extra droop is wanted.
