Land Rover Part Number: RTC6398 - Lever Drop Arm - RHD - Gemmer Manual & 6-Bolt
RTC6398 is a lever drop arm for right-hand-drive steering boxes fitted to manual Gemmer steering boxes and the lower steering column on Defender models built 1987-2006. Installed at the steering column lower and mounted to a 6-bolt Gemmer manual steering box, the drop arm converts the steering box's rotary output into the angular motion required by the track rods and steering arms. Correct selection is important where orientation and mounting patterns differ between manual and power-assisted boxes and between right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive applications; confirm steering-box variant and bolt pattern before ordering.
