Land Rover Part Number: QME500060 - Lower Steering Column Shaft - Left-Hand Drive
QME500060 is a Lower Steering Column Shaft - Left-Hand Drive. Fitted beneath the steering column, the lower shaft contains universal joints that transmit steering input from the column to the steering gear. The shaft links the steering column to the steering mechanism and provides a torsional connection that transfers driver steering torque to the steering rack or box; the universal joints accommodate slight misalignment and angular movement to reduce binding. Correct condition of the lower shaft maintains steering continuity and helps keep steering feel consistent - worn joints can introduce play or noise in the steering system. The left-hand drive configuration locates the shaft for vehicles with the steering wheel on the left side and matches the Discovery 2 steering layout where applicable.
