This aluminium gear box cover is an aftermarket replacement panel for the gearcases on Tamiya DT02, DT03, DT04 and Hornet EVO chassis. It gives a firmer substitute to the stock plastic lid for modelers seeking improved support and a tidier finish.
To install: remove the original plastic panel, position the aluminium cover over the factory mounting points, and secure with the vehicle's existing screws. Verify gear mesh and shaft alignment before first run to prevent binding or excessive wear. The unit is supplied in a black finish and is intended to match the standard gearbox layout of the listed Tamiya platforms.
From a tuning perspective the component helps maintain consistent gear spacing when swapping spurs or fitting higher quality bearings, and it simplifies maintenance tasks that benefit from a more stable panel than molded plastic. This is an aftermarket body/structural accessory and does not include electronics or drivetrain components.
