HPI Bullet 3.0 / WR8 Alloy Rear Anti-bending Plate by GPM BMT009  [BMT009]

Rear anti-bending plate for Bullet 3.0

This aluminium rear anti-bending plate is an aftermarket replacement part produced by GPM for HPI Bullet 3.0 platforms and WR8 variants, offered as a 1pc set. It is designed specifically for nitro engine touring car applications to reduce flex at the rear bulkhead and stabilise suspension geometry under load.

The plate fits the original mounting points without requiring chassis modification, and it replaces the standard rear brace to provide a stiffer connection between the rear tower and chassis. In practice this helps keep rear toe and camber changes more predictable during cornering, which assists in fine tuning rear traction and handling balance.

Installation notes: confirm fit to the listed models and torque screws evenly to avoid introducing stress concentrations. Check clearance around the fuel tank and exhaust on nitro layouts before final tightening. This part is supplied as a single alloy piece intended for direct replacement on compatible Bullet 3.0 / WR8 rear assemblies.
