Technical Overview of the Brass Gearbox Cover

The JAZRIDER brass gearbox cover is engineered as a front and rear reinforcement for the Axial 1/6 SCX6 Jeep gearbox housings. It provides targeted protection to gearbox faces and introduces ballast low in the chassis to stabilise articulation under load.

Material and Functional Benefits

Brass was selected for its combination of density and machinability. The added mass reduces pitch and roll during slow technical manoeuvres while the material resists deformation from repeated impacts, extending gearbox component life in demanding use.

Fitment, Mounting and Service

Designed to suit Axial SCX6 Jeep JLU Wrangler 4WD configurations without chassis alteration, the cover installs with standard hand tools. Routine service involves periodic torque checks on mounting fasteners and removal for gearbox inspection when servicing gears or bearings.

What checks are recommended after initial installation?

Verify clearance between the cover and any aftermarket components, run the drivetrain by hand to detect binding, and retorque fasteners after the first session to confirm secure fitment.

Can this cover be used with high torque servos or modified gearsets?

Yes, but ensure gearbox alignment and bearing condition are sound before adding higher loads. The cover protects externally but does not compensate for internal wear or poor gear mesh.

Any special instructions for long term durability?

Use correct torque settings, avoid overtightening which can stress housings, and inspect for corrosion or fretting at mount interfaces. A light coating of anti corrosion product can extend service life in damp environments.
