Interesting thread thanks for sharing!

I was wondering the other day what the load weight limit on the lower tailgate actually is?

Compared to the L322 I was quite surprised at how fragile the L405 lower tailgate cables look on my new to me 405!

Seems to be 440Lbs, 200kg..

Dear Marcochezzi,

Can you tell me the exact name and number of this part?
My cable's coating gone by the ages, and now the metal tunnel meets directly with the metal cable.
Some of its wires already spined up by the rub, so the situation could be the same to your system.

Since I don't have opportunity and knowledge to disassemble the lower tailgate myself, I need to rely on some profession. I just want to know what is the part to replace and where I can get it the cheapest.

Thank you in advance!

Tom

Hi Tom

Sadly I cannot help with a part number, I had a cabling company manufacture a new cable for me..

Maybe someone else on this forum can help, just bear in mind that if you are going to purchase a new unit from JLR, the left and right hand cable assemblies will have different part numbers as they are not an identical pair..

Good luck..

Dear Marcochezzi,

Thank you for your answer and taking my attention on side-differences.
During time, after some research, I found the part:

Lower tailgate cable stay LEFT: LR034439
Lower tailgate cable stay RIGHT: LR034438

Have a nice day!

Tom
