This aluminium lower gear cover skid plate is made to suit the Axial SCX24 1/24 scale 4WD chassis, providing a stiff protective barrier under the gearbox and lower drive components to limit direct impacts from obstacles during off-road use.
As noted in the product title, compatibility is specific to SCX24-class Axial Racing chassis. The part is supplied in a black finish and functions as a scale accessory to help protect under-gear components on crawling and trail courses.
Installation is straightforward for those experienced with RC builds: the cover attaches to the vehicle's existing lower mounting locations using standard fasteners, so special chassis alteration is not normally necessary. Always check alignment and clearance while cycling the suspension and steering before final torque.
Performance note: fitting a metal lower cover changes how the chassis slides along obstacles by adding a harder skid plate beneath the gearbox; this reduces the risk of damage but can add a small amount of weight low in the chassis. Use when protection is the goal and re-check clearances after fitting.
