Wrecked gear in anger (4)

I believe the answer is:

rage

'anger' is the definition.
(rage is a kind of anger)

'wrecked gear' is the wordplay.
'wrecked' indicates an anagram.
'gear' anagrammed gives 'RAGE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for rage that I've seen before include "Mania" , "Fashionable" , "Fury, passion" , "Cult - passion" , "Terrible temper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
