BR 1222 - Fork Selector

The gear selector fork sits inside the gearbox and moves the sliding hub along the shaft to engage each gear. When you move the gear lever, the fork pushes the collar to lock the chosen gear. It's a key part of gear changes.

This selector fork fits Land Rover Series models, covering Series 1, Series 2, Series 2A and Series 3. It's a gearbox internal part, so confirm your gearbox type and the fork's position before ordering, as Series gearboxes had several variants over the years.

A worn selector fork usually shows as difficulty engaging a gear, jumping out of gear, or a notchy change. The fork tips wear where they contact the sliding collar. Because it's inside the gearbox, replacement typically happens during a rebuild.

Fitting a selector fork is typically a specialist job, because the gearbox has to be removed and stripped to reach it. It's usually replaced as part of a wider gearbox overhaul rather than on its own. Workshop tools and gearbox experience are normally needed.
