robin craig Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Dear all, Apologies for technical terminology but the descriptions should be clear for all to understand. On our LHD Wolf the panhard rod that connects the chassis to the axle across the width of the vehicle is rubbing the front of the diff cover area. This is preventing us getting it safetied (MOT) for the road. Q1 What part number is this item, is there a second part number for left or right hand drive vehicle? Q2 What changes between the LHD and RHD part ie how can we identify what is fitted now, we wonder if wrong part number is fitted.

0 landyandy Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 hi robin the correct part no for lhd is nrc9729 and from memory there is a difference in them lhd being canted out more as it runs close to diff housing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 robin craig Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 so that would explain why it doesn't quite fit right and rubs against the diff then if someone has used an RHD rod in the left hand drive vehicle then. I guess it is too much to expect that the part number is on the part eh?! R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 landyandy Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 correct paper sticker with no on also has it just been cast from batus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 robin craig Posted October 20, 2013 Author Share Posted October 20, 2013 It came to us by way of a reputable dealer from the Grantham area:nut: I have long requested that our vehicles undergo a third party MOT prior to export but we don't seem to do it. Some of the trucks sold direct from BATUS this year have been positively cheap. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 robin craig Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 With many thanks to Andy we have found this part in the Land Rover civilian dealership parts system and should have it in hand for wednesday. I'm thinking that this part is also used on civvy vehicles. Here is hoping this solves the problem. Thanks again to Andy R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 robin craig Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 The Panhard rod arrived and was fitted today and wooh hoo we have clearance and all is now correct. We have found a few more items on the truck that convince us this was smashed up and bodgermefied back together and I really do not think it was the MOD.

Question
robin craig
Dear all,
Apologies for technical terminology but the descriptions should be clear for all to understand.
On our LHD Wolf the panhard rod that connects the chassis to the axle across the width of the vehicle is rubbing the front of the diff cover area.
This is preventing us getting it safetied (MOT) for the road.
Q1 What part number is this item, is there a second part number for left or right hand drive vehicle?
Q2 What changes between the LHD and RHD part ie how can we identify what is fitted now, we wonder if wrong part number is fitted.
Thanks
Robin
