QFW000030 Drop Arm & Ball Joint LHD – Fits Defender/Range Rover (LHD)

This QFW000030 Drop Arm & Ball Joint (LHD) is designed to replace the original steering-box drop arm assembly in left-hand-drive vehicles of the Land Rover Defender (1983–2016) and the Range Rover Classic (1983–1991). It integrates the drop arm and the ball-joint into one assembly, providing a robust solution for power-steered LHD models. The part is engineered to fit the 4-bolt Adwest (power) steering box configuration (verify your box style before ordering). The ball-joint is pre-fitted, minimizing installation time and ensuring alignment integrity. Ideal for restoring steering precision, reducing play in the linkage and delivering reliable service. Check if your current steering box drop-arm has significant wear or play; replacing it can restore tighter steering and safer handling.
