Strengthen your Tamiya with a JAZRIDER rear gearbox

This JAZRIDER aluminium rear gearbox fits Tamiya Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang and Bigwig platforms and comes in a gun metal finish. It is intended as a durable replacement for the original housing to reduce the risk of damage during hard use.

The benefits of switching to aluminium components

Aluminium housings stand up to impacts and maintain gear alignment better than cheap plastics. The result is a drivetrain that needs less frequent attention and holds up under aggressive driving or bashing sessions.

Cross model fitment and installation ease

The gearbox is machined to match common Tamiya mounting patterns for a straightforward installation. Most hobbyists will find the swap requires minimal adjustments and returns a reliable, long lasting result.

Maintenance tips to extend service life

After fitting the unit, check for correct gear mesh and torque the mounting screws evenly. Inspect the gearbox after heavy use and relubricate gears as part of routine maintenance to reduce noise and wear.

The aluminium housing improves durability under higher loads, but ensure your gears and bearings are rated for the motor's torque to avoid internal damage.
Most installs are direct replacements. Occasionally small shims or a different screw length may be needed depending on prior chassis modifications.
Look for loose screws, unusual play in the output shaft, and listen for grinding sounds. Recheck gear mesh and bearings and address any issues before the next outing.
