Quadrant spindle
A gearbox quadrant spindle, part 57-1896, the pivot shaft for the gearchange quadrant assembly.
The quadrant spindle, part number 57-1896, is a gearbox internal that lives with the gearchange quadrant assembly. It's the shaft the quadrant pivots on, tying the gear selector mechanism together so that movement at the gear lever translates into the selector action inside the box. You'll find it referenced in the gearbox inner cover and selector mechanism drawings, alongside the other shafts, gears, and starting mechanism parts.

The older parts books list this same piece under the T1896 number, so if you're working from an early book or an old parts list and see that stamped on a fiche, it's the same physical spindle as 57-1896 today.
This one shows up across a long run of catalog years, so it saw service across a number of gearbox revisions. Because gearbox internals can vary in small ways between production runs, it's worth checking your gearbox casing and selector setup against what you're ordering, or give us a call and we'll help confirm before you buy.
