Land Rover Workshop Service and Repair Manuals

 

GENERAL  

The independent rear suspension offers a reduction in unsprung weight over the beam axle design fitted to previous Land 
Rover models. The rear suspension comprises an upper control arm, a lower control arm, a wheel knuckle and wheel 
hub, two spring damper modules and an anti-roll bar and links assembly. The damper modules use a similar design of 
damper which can be fitted with either a coil spring or an air spring.  
 
The rear suspension control arms have been designed to give maximum ground clearance and also allow for the 
adjustment of the camber using a cam bolt and adjustment of toe and bump steer via an adjustable transverse link.
