This is an RC-scale axle protector mount designed for Axial Racing SCX10 chassis, supplied by GPM as model SCX168F/R. The part combines aluminum and plastic to offer a balance between localised stiffness and impact absorption while protecting axle housings and external link points during low-speed trail and rock crawling use.
The mount is intended to be fitted to the front and rear axle housings of SCX10 rigs to shield vulnerable areas from direct hits and abrasion. It functions as a protective bracket that redirects contact away from gear cases and suspension link anchors without changing drivetrain geometry when installed as a direct replacement part.
Installation is straightforward for technicians familiar with common SCX10 axles: remove the original axle cover or mount, align the protector with existing screw bosses and fasten using the chassis' standard hardware. The aluminum sections resist point impacts while the plastic sections help absorb repeated shocks; users can check fitment and clearances before full reassembly to ensure no interference with suspension travel or steering linkages.
As an aftermarket protection part, this mount is suitable for builders seeking a modest upgrade to axle durability on SCX10 crawlers without major chassis changes; verify fitment against your axle revision before installation.
