Front-End Weight Upgrade for Better Traction

The Kyosho MXW005 brass front hub is intended for the Mini-Z 4x4 Crawler range and is a compact way to increase front traction when tackling climbs. Mounting brass at the front improves tyre contact and steadies the chassis under load.

Why Brass Works Well on Small Crawlers

Brass combines longevity with mass that is useful in tight-scale models. For the Mini-Z 4x4 the added front weight helps the car maintain forward momentum and resist tipping when negotiating steep obstacles.

Installation Tips for Better Results

  • Make sure the hub is pushed fully home and bolts are torqued to the correct setting to prevent vibration.
  • Balance the car by adding weight to the rear if the nose becomes too heavy.
  • Keep an eye on contact points and clean any grit that could wear threads.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
It fits the Mini-Z 4x4 hub interface, but some body and wheel combinations may change wheel clearance; verify fit before finalising installation.
Most shells will not need trimming, but confirm wheel-to-arch clearance after fitting the brass hub and any heavier tyres.
Yes, it is a simple, effective upgrade that improves climb handling without complex modifications, making it a common first upgrade for Mini-Z 4x4 owners.
Wipe away loose grit with a soft brush and use a light degreaser if needed; dry thoroughly to avoid corrosion on attached hardware.
