Specifically produced as a metal replacement for the Axial 1/6 SCX6 Jeep front and rear gearbox covers, this red-anodised 7075 aluminium unit provides a more rigid mating surface than the stock plastic lid. The part is intended to assist maintenance and tuning by offering consistent alignment of the gearbox housing.
Use is limited to the Axial 1/6 SCX6 Jeep configurations listed in the product title. The unit is an external cover and does not include internal drivetrain components. Correct fitment uses the SCX6 chassis' existing mounting points, so installation normally involves removing the original cover and securing this aluminium piece with the chassis' factory screw holes.
Fitting guidance: work on a neat bench, use the right hex driver sizes, and align components before final torque. The cover can form part of a tuning process to keep gear mesh consistent after spur, pinion, or bearing upgrades.
