Land Rover Part Number: FRC8863 - Gear Selector Lever - Manual Transmission
FRC8863 is a Gear Selector Lever - Manual Transmission. Fitted to Land Rover Defender models from 1987 to 2006 that use manual gearboxes, this lever operates within the selector assembly to transmit the driver's shift movement into the transmission selector mechanism. Worn, bent or damaged selector levers commonly affect shift feel and can alter selector travel; replacement restores the correct mechanical relationship within the selector assembly and retains the original selector travel and detent operation.
