Land Rover Part Number: KVU000060 - Chassis-to-Body Mounting Bracket
KVU000060 is a chassis-to-body mounting bracket used on Defender chassis assemblies. Fitted to the ladder chassis, the bracket locates the body mounting points and forms the primary structural link where the vehicle body attaches to the chassis, transmitting shear and tensile loads into the chassis rails. Correct positioning maintains body alignment, panel gaps and door alignment; corrosion, deformation or cracking at the mounting faces or bolt holes will allow unwanted movement and can concentrate loads at adjacent fixings. Selection of the correct bracket requires confirmation of wheelbase and model generation because mounting hole positions and bracket orientation differ between 90, 110 and 130 variants and between earlier L315 and later L316 chassis. When replacing, match the part to the chassis frame assembly and protect mating surfaces against corrosion at reassembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
KVU000060 secures the vehicle body to the Defender chassis and locates the body mounting points. It transmits shear and tensile loads from the body into the chassis rails, so corrosion, deformation or cracking at the mounting faces or bolt holes can produce unwanted movement and load concentration at adjacent fixings. Confirm wheelbase and generation when selecting a replacement, as hole positions and orientation differ between variants.
