Land Rover Part Number: FTC3154 - Front Stub Axle
FTC3154 is a front stub axle that forms the swivel pin housing for the front hub and takes the wheel bearing and hub assembly in the front suspension. The stub axle transfers steering and vertical loads from the swivel pin to the wheel hub while locating the hub assembly on the vehicle's front suspension; as the swivel pin housing it accepts the wheel bearings and provides the mounting interface for the hub and brake mounting components. Correct dimensional fit is critical because variations in swivel pin bore, bearing seat and hub interface occur between model series and VIN ranges - wear or damage to the bearing seat or swivel pin bore affects wheel alignment and bearing preload and will require replacement of the stub axle to restore proper hub location. When replacing this component, match the part number and VIN range to the vehicle to confirm correct swivel pin and bearing arrangements for Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic front suspension variants.
