The retainer plate (SKU 515467) secures components within the rod-operated handbrake mechanism on the LT230 transfer box assembly. It locates and holds the handbrake internals in c orrect alignment, preventing lateral movement that would cause inconsistent braking performance or premature wear of the operating rod and associated components. Failure or loss of this plate typically results in a sloppy handbrake action or inability to hold the vehicle on a gradient.
