Synchronizer ring for 3-4th and 5th/reverse gear for R380 - Defender, Discovery-1,2, Range Rover P38

Blocking synchronizer ring (Baulk Ring) for the mechanical 5-speed gearbox R380 of Land Rover Defender, Discovery 1 2, Range Rover P38

What does it do?

• Speed synchronization: When you shift gears, this ring acts as a friction brake. It first presses against the cone of the required gear, aligning the rotation speed of the gear and the main shaft.
• Smooth engagement without crunching: Only after the speeds are fully aligned, the ring allows the synchronizer clutch to engage further and firmly engage with the gear teeth. This ensures smooth gear shifting without metal crunching

Signs of wear FTC5018:

Over time, the inner friction surface of the ring wears out (becomes smooth), and it loses the ability to quickly stop the gear.

Typical symptoms - Gears (usually 3rd or reverse) start to engage "heavily", with a characteristic effort or "notchiness" on the lever.

A metallic crunch appears when trying to quickly shift gears (especially noticeable on a cold gearbox)
