Distance piece
A small distance piece spacer used in the gearbox outer cover and gear change lever assembly.
This is a distance piece, a small spacer that lives in the gearbox outer cover area, specifically around the gear change lever mechanism. It's a simple part but one that matters for keeping the linkage running true on its shaft, without side play or binding.

Our catalog record shows it under the modern number 57-1874, with the older book listing it as T1874 if you're working from an earlier parts list. It shows up across a run of catalog years from the mid-60s into the mid-70s, appearing in the gearbox outer cover and levers figure repeatedly, which tells us it's a recurring, standard fitment item rather than a one-off oddity.
It's the kind of small hardware that's easy to lose track of when the cover comes apart for service, so if you're rebuilding that area of the gearbox it's worth having a spare on hand. Confirm exact placement against your own parts diagram before ordering, since our description here is brief.
