Frequently asked questions

What does the ETC7884 spring clip do?
The ETC7884 is a steel spring clip that provides positive retention of linkage rods and clevis pins within the throttle linkage and gear change assembly. It prevents disconnection under vibration and movement, and its design allows removal and refitting without tools during servicing. It's a genuine Land Rover part.
Which Land Rovers does the ETC7884 fit?
The ETC7884 fits the V8 EFi petrol throttle linkage and gear change on the Defender (1987-2006, 4.0L V8 EFi), Discovery 1 (1989-1998) and Range Rover Classic (1986-1994). On the Defender it also suits the 5-speed manual gear change across engines. Confirm your linkage before ordering.
How many ETC7884 clips do I need, and can I reuse the old one?
You'll typically need one ETC7884 clip per linkage rod or clevis pin connection, so order by how many joints you're servicing. These spring clips can lose tension or distort with age, so it's good practice to fit fresh clips rather than reuse old ones that no longer grip securely.
