Land Rover Part Number: FTC1435 - Reverse Gear Pad
FTC1435 is a reverse gear selector pad fitted to the reverse gear selector lever of the LT77 77mm 5-speed manual transmission. It acts as a contact buffer during selection of reverse gear, absorbing impact and reducing direct metal-to-metal contact on the selector mechanism.
