2002 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY wheel bolt torque

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 44-7
The gearbox consists of a torque converter housing, an intermediate plate, a gearbox housing and a rear extension
housing, bolted together in series. The rear of the gearbox is supported by a rubber mounting installed between a
mounting bracket on the gearbox and the LH chassis rail. A heat shield is installed on the mounting to protect it from
the exhaust.

Torque converter housing
The torque converter housing attaches the gearbox to the engine and contains the torque converter. Different torque
converter housings are used to accommodate the difference between the V8 and Td5 engine interfaces. The torque
converter is connected to the engine drive plate and transmits the drive from the engine to the gearbox input shaft.
When engaged, a hydraulic lock-up clutch in the torque converter prevents slippage, to give a direct drive from the
engine to the gearbox for improved driving response.

29.Rotate pinion in both directions to settle
bearings.
30.Recheck pinion Torque to Turn, adjust if
necessary.
31.Recheck pinion head height.
32.Using LRT-51-003 to restrain pinion flange,
remove bolt and washer. Remove pinion
flange.
33.Discard bolt.34.Using LRT-51-010 fit pinion seal.
35.Ensure spacer and tail bearing are correctly
located.
36.Fit pinion, pinion flange and washer.
37.Fit new pinion flange bolt and tighten to 100 Nm
(74 lbf.ft).
38.Lightly oil differential bearings.
39.Ensure spring dowels are fitted in bearing caps.
40.Fit differential bearing outer races and locate
differential assembly into housing.
41.Fit bearing caps and tighten bolts to 10 Nm (7.5
lbf.ft).
42.Fit adjusting nuts, tighten crown wheel side nut
to 22 Nm (16 lbf.ft). Ensure opposing nut is
loose.
43.Position DTI to check crown wheel backlash.
Adjust opposing nut to obtain correct crown
wheel backlash.
44.Rotate pinion in both directions to settle
bearings.
45.Measure in 3 places to obtain correct crown
wheel backlash.
NOTE: Crown wheel backlash should be within
0.076 mm - 0.177 mm (0.003' - 0.007').
46.Align adjusting nuts to next roll pin slot, do not
loosen nuts to align slots.

47.Tighten bearing cap bolts to 90 Nm (66.5 lbf.ft).
48.Secure adjusting nuts with new roll pins.
49.Apply Prussian Blue to crown wheel teeth to
check tooth contact.
50.Rotate pinion several times to obtain full tooth
contact.51.A = Normal pattern, the drive pattern should be
centred on the gear teeth. The coast pattern
should be centred on the gear teeth but may be
towards the toe. There should be some
clearance between the pattern and the top of
the gear teeth.
52.B = Backlash correct, thinner pinion shim
required.
53.C = Backlash correct, thicker pinion shim
required.
54.D = Pinion shim correct, decrease backlash.
55.E = Pinion shim correct, increase backlash.
56.Note assembly Torque to Turn when checking
tooth contact. Total Torque to Turn should not
exceed 10.85 Nm (8 lbf.ft).

STEERING
57-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Tilt adjustment
The column tilt adjuster lever mechanism is located on the LH side of the steering column and allows the upper column
tube, nacelle and steering wheel assemblies to be tilted up or down a maximum of 7.5
° or 47 mm (NAS vehicles have
a smaller range of movement than the ROW vehicles).
The pawl of the mechanism is attached to the lower column and is allowed to pivot, a toothed quadrant is fixed to the
upper column tube.
When the lever on the LH side of the steering column is raised the mechanism releases the pawl from the toothed
quadrant, this allows the column to be moved. When the lever is released two return springs pull the pawl into
engagement with the toothed quadrant.
Steering column lock (All except NAS)
The steering column lock houses the ignition switch, ignition illumination light ring, key lock barrel and the alarm
passive coil. The steering lock is attached to the upper column with two shear bolts. The bolts are tightened to a
torque which shears off the heads of the bolts preventing easy removal of the steering lock.
The steering lock operates by a bolt, which emerges when the ignition key is turned to position 'O' and the ignition key
removed. The bolt engages in a lock collar located on the upper shaft in the upper column tube. The lock collar is
attached to the upper shaft by a 'wave form' interference ring. If a high torque is applied via the steering wheel with
the lock engaged, the lock collar will slip on the upper shaft. This prevents damage to the steering lock, yet still
prevents the vehicle from being driven.
Steering column lock (NAS only)
The steering column lock houses the ignition switch, ignition illumination light ring, key lock barrel and the alarm
passive coil. The steering lock is attached to the upper column with two shear bolts. The bolts are tightened to a
torque which shears off the heads of the bolts preventing easy removal of the steering lock.
The steering column lock operates by a bolt, which emerges when the ignition key is turned to position 'O' and the
ignition key removed. The bolt engages in a groove machined into the upper shaft in the column tube.
Steering wheel
The steering wheel comprises a cast centre and wire frame onto which the soft polyurethane foam is moulded. The
steering wheel is located on the upper column shaft by a spline and is secured with a nut. A remote radio control switch
(if fitted) is located on the LH side of the steering wheel, a cruise control switch may be located on the RH side. Horn
switches are located on each side of the centre of the steering wheel and protrude through the airbag module cover.
Both switches are connected by wires to the rotary coupler connector.
Intermediate shaft
One end of the intermediate shaft is attached to the steering column lower shaft by a splined universal joint and a bolt,
the universal joint is part of a rubber coupling assembly. The rubber coupling assembly is covered by a heat shield
and connects to the lower section of the intermediate shaft via a decouple joint. The rubber coupling reduces the
shocks felt by the driver through the steering wheel. A second universal joint on the other end of the intermediate shaft
is held in by a bolt. The universal joint is splined and engages with the splined rotor (input) shaft of the steering box.
The decouple joint consists of a metal plate that has open ended slots, the plate is bolted through the slots into the
other half of the decouple joint. The top half of the decouple joint has a slot that accepts the lower section of the
intermediate shaft. The slotted metal plate clamps the lower section of the intermediate shaft to the top section. An
indicator clip is installed between the slotted metal plate and the top half of the decouple joint.
If the intermediate shaft is compressed in an accident, the slotted metal plate in the decouple joint will disengage if
sufficient force is applied to the front end of the shaft. If the forces involved do not disengage the shaft, the red
indicator clip located in the decouple joint will break off if the shaft moves. The intermediate shaft cannot be repaired
and must be replaced as an assembly if accident damage occurs.
