1. PRODUCT DETAILS
This lower steering shaft is a direct replacement for OEM part numbers LR071147 and QMN500250. It is the lower section of the steering column that transmits rotational input from the upper column to the steering rack pinion, with an integrated universal joint (U-joint) that allows the shaft to turn through the angle between the column and the rack. Manufactured to OEM specifications, this shaft is designed for Land Rover Discovery 3, Discovery 4, and Range Rover Sport (L320) applications. Supersession note: QMN500250 has been superseded by LR071147; both refer to the same lower steering shaft. Important: this shaft is for Left-Hand Drive (LHD) vehicles only. Right-hand drive vehicles use a different part number.

Q1: What are the symptoms of a failing lower steering shaft?
A: Common signs include play or looseness felt through the steering wheel, stiffness or notchy steering feel, and clunking or knocking noises when turning the wheel. These symptoms typically point to a worn universal joint in the shaft.
Q2: Is this an original manufacturer part?
A: This is a high-quality aftermarket replacement manufactured to OEM specifications. The OEM numbers LR071147 and QMN500250 are referenced for compatibility identification only.
Q3: Are LR071147 and QMN500250 the same part?
A: Yes. LR071147 is the latest superseding number that replaces QMN500250 (and earlier QMN500230/QMN500151). Both refer to the same lower steering shaft application. Either number may appear on the original part, but LR071147 is the current number to reference.
