Frequently asked questions

What is the FRC8548 split pin used for?
The FRC8548 is a genuine split pin used to secure clevis and castellated pin joints on the Land Rover Defender, Discovery and Range Rover Classic. It typically locks handbrake, gear change linkage and clutch master cylinder connections.
Where is this split pin used on the vehicle?
This split pin typically secures the handbrake assembly, gear change linkage and clutch master cylinder pins. Applications include the Defender LT77S gear change rod, Discovery 1 and 2 clutch and handbrake, and Range Rover Classic gear change.
How many split pins are needed?
You'll typically need one split pin per pin joint being secured. If you're refitting several linkage or clevis joints, order one for each, since split pins are cheap and always fitted new.
Can the split pin be reused?
No, a split pin is single-use and should be replaced every time the joint is opened. The legs are bent to lock it in place, so removing it deforms the pin. Always fit a new one to keep the joint secure.
