Land Rover Part Number: FRC8390 - Front Propeller Shaft - 4 Cylinder
FRC8390 is a front propeller shaft for 4 cylinder Defender models. Fitted between the transfer box and the front axle, this shaft transmits drive forward on Defender vehicles with 4-cylinder engines. The assembly uses splined and flanged connections to match the transfer box and axle flanges and universal joints to accommodate steering and suspension articulation; where fitted, the splined connection allows limited longitudinal movement to accommodate changes in driveline length as the suspension moves. Correct shaft alignment and joint condition are important for smooth drive delivery and to avoid vibration under load.
