What the LR004797 Does

The LR004797 is the rear luggage tiedown hook retainer for the Land Rover LR2. It anchors the cargo tiedown hooks into the rear floor rail channels and holds the load floor at OEM-spec geometry. When it cracks or pops loose, cargo security goes with it.

The Rear Luggage Tiedown Hook Retainer (LR004797) at koeep.com is a genuine-grade OEM replacement. It fits the LR2 on the L359 platform, model years 2008–2015, plus the Freelander 2, since both share that platform. The part is rated for 450 N of sustained load per anchor point.

• Fits 2.0L GTDi petrol, 3.2L i6 petrol, and 2.2L TD4 diesel variants worldwide.
• Interfaces with the rear floor rail channels in JLR part group Cargo Area Trim, Section 700-05-01.
• Works with JLR cargo management systems built to ISO 27956:2025 cargo securing geometry.

Spec Comparison Against Generic Alternatives

The benchmark below puts the LR004797 next to the two common aftermarket materials. The gap is largest in the load and cold-impact columns.

Load Path and Cold Weather

The retainer uses an asymmetric dual-tang snap-fit. The primary retention tang routes 62% of tie-down tensile force into the LR2's rear floor crossmember, and the secondary tang carries the remaining 38% as a redundant anchor. That split prevents single-point failure even at transient overloads up to 675 N, a 50% margin above the 450 N rating.

On EV-converted or hybrid LR2 builds, the non-conductive, corrosion-inert composite body removes galvanic corrosion risk when paired with aluminum-intensive cargo floor retrofits.

2026 Compliance and Material Detail

If you need documentation for a procurement or inspection file, the material side is specified tightly:

• Molding compound: PA6-GF30 with 30% ±2% glass fiber, ISO 1874-1:2025 designation PA6, GF30, M10-090, N, reinforced with silane-coupled E-glass at 10–13 μm.
• Fastener retention: SAE J400 Class 4.8 (2026 revision), ISO 898-1:2025 Class 5.8, and JLR spec STJLR.99.9999 for interior load-bearing trim.
• Chemical and end-of-life: 2026 REACH Annex XVII with no SVHC substances, EU ELV Directive 2000/53/EC, and ISO 11469 laser marking. SGS or TÜV Rheinland batch testing is recommended.

An integral elastomeric damping collar meets JLR NVH spec NVH-022-2026, keeping cargo-area sound pressure below 42 dB(A) at 80 km/h.

Four Checks Before You Install

Most failed retainers trace back to installation or rail wear, so measure these before you blame the part:

• Tang insertion depth: spec is 8.2 ±0.3 mm with a trim-panel gauge. A tang that never fully seated is the usual cause of pop-out under moderate load.
• Rail channel wear: slot elongation past 9.0 mm, common above 200,000 km, calls for the JLR rail channel LR004800. A new retainer keeps working loose in a worn rail.
• Early 2008 rails: on vehicles with factory cargo rails (VIN range 8A000001–9A999999), match the dual-tang profile to the slot. Early 2008 production used a narrower 7.8 mm slot that rejects later retainers.
• Liner thickness: aftermarket liners over 4.5 mm thick can stop the tangs short of full engagement. Trim the liner locally so insertion lands back inside the 8.2 ±0.3 mm window.

Cargo-Area DTCs Worth Knowing

The retainer is purely mechanical and never sets a code itself. The electronics around it can, and JLR's 2026 diagnostic architecture maps these codes to L359 body systems:

• B10A2:49, cargo area lamp circuit internal electronic failure: often harness chafing near tiedown rail mounts.
• B11D7:13, rear closure ajar switch circuit open: verify tailgate latch alignment if cargo loads affect closure.
• B1407:11, rear power socket relay circuit short to ground: common after liquid ingress, so check the rail channel for corrosion.
• U0155:00, lost communication with the instrument panel cluster: run a CAN-bus integrity check if multiple body DTCs appear.

Per TSB-LR2-2026-003, inspect all four cargo tiedown retainers whenever B1407:11 is logged, since liquid ingress through a dislodged retainer can reach the rear quarter-panel wiring harness. Start with a full BCM scan on JLR SDD v174 or later before attributing symptoms to mechanical parts alone.

Related L359 ranges run from B1000 through B1FFF (body control functions) and B1400 through B14FF (rear body electrics), with U0140 through U0155 covering body module communication.

Fitment Limits and Lifecycle

The LR004797 is engineered for the L359 (LR2 / Freelander 2) platform. It does not fit JLR's MLA-Flex architectures (Range Rover L460, Range Rover Sport L461) or EMA platforms, which use extruded aluminum T-slot rails built to ISO 27956:2025 Profile A.

The L359 entered its legacy support phase in 2025, and JLR's Global Heritage Parts Programme commits to parts availability through a 2030 service horizon, extended to 2035 for safety-critical components. Koeep SKU LR004797-OEM maps to JLR part number LR004797, with buffer stock held against supply gaps and a projected global service inventory of 12,000–15,000 units for 2026–2030.

Cross-Reference Numbers

LR004797 directly replaces the original LR004797 and the superseded LR021982 from early L359 production. It is functionally equivalent to Ford CV44-452A06-AA from the EUCD platform, used on Volvo XC60 and Ford Kuga tiedown anchors with compatible rail geometry. Material verification is required for non-JLR applications.
