Land Rover Part Number: ERR4679 - Front Engine Lifting Bracket
ERR4679 is a front engine lifting bracket that secures to designated threaded points on the front face of V8 EFI cylinder heads and adjacent castings to provide a hoisting point for engine removal and installation. The bracket gives a stable, front-mounted lifting point that aligns the hoist with the engine centre of mass, locates the lifting hook clear of the serpentine drive and front accessory components, and aids access to the cylinder head and front-mounted components such as the power steering pump. Installation requires correct alignment with the engine's lifting bosses and secure fastenings to the specified threads; refer to the vehicle workshop documentation for the correct torque and fastener specification for the model in question.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ERR4679 bracket provides a front-mounted lifting point by attaching to the threaded lifting bosses on V8 EFI cylinder heads and adjacent castings, accepting a hoist hook or lifting sling. It stabilises the engine during removal so the hoist aligns with the engine centre of mass and keeps the hook clear of front accessories such as the serpentine-driven power steering pump. Always follow the vehicle workshop manual for correct attachment points and fastening specifications.
