Land Rover Part Number: MXC8420 - Upper Tailgate Lock Extension - Right
MXC8420 is an upper tailgate lock extension for the right-hand side. Fitted into the upper tailgate assembly, this component locates and stabilises the latch engagement for the upper glass, allowing the tailgate locking striker to engage correctly when the tailgate is closed. It is shaped to interface with the tailgate latch and surrounding trim, maintaining correct alignment under repeated use and minor loads; replacing a damaged or worn extension will restore secure mechanical engagement and reduce movement or misalignment of the glass when latched. Installation requires location within the upper tailgate assembly and alignment to the corresponding left/right latch geometry on the tailgate-refer to vehicle-specific assembly information for access and mounting details on the Range Rover Classic upper tailgate.
