Land Rover Part Number: LR027527 - Crownwheel and pinion assembly
LR027527 is a crownwheel and pinion assembly. Fitted to the front differential of Defender models, it can also be used on the rear differential of 90-inch wheelbase vehicles where the same gearset is used. The crownwheel and pinion form the final drive inside the differential: the pinion accepts torque from the propeller shaft and meshes with the crownwheel to transfer drive to the axle shafts while changing direction by 90 degrees. Correct alignment and tooth contact are essential for quiet running and long service life; the assembly installs into the differential carrier together with bearings, seals and fasteners. Refer to the vehicle V.I.N. to confirm axle application and fitment before installation.
