Land Rover Part Number: RSC000040 - Front Right Shock Absorber - Standard Suspension
RSC000040 is a front right shock absorber for the standard (non-sport) suspension. It fits the front right suspension on Freelander 1 models specified from VIN 1A336548. The damper assembly converts suspension motion into controlled hydraulic resistance to manage rebound and compression after road inputs, helping to maintain tyre contact and predictable steering response; the unit locates between the suspension upright and the body upper mounting point. Replacement of a worn or leaking damper restores consistent control characteristics and helps reduce uneven tyre wear. Confirm the correct side and standard suspension specification when fitting; the matching left-hand part number is RSC000050.
