HPI Bullet Orange Alloy Rear Hub Carriers by JAZRIDER BUL-18009-OR  [BUL-18009-OR]

Rear hub carriers for Bullet

This JAZRIDER BUL-18009-OR item is an RC-scale rear hub carrier made to match HPI Bullet wheel and suspension layouts for the BULLET 3.0 MT and ST models. As a drop-in replacement component, it replaces the plastic hub carriers to provide a stiffer mounting point at the rear hub without altering the chassis geometry.

Material and role: the part is described as an orange alloy hub carrier and its function is to locate the wheel hub and anchor suspension loads. In practice this affects rear end stiffness and feedback through the suspension when accelerating, braking, or turning, so expect a modest change in handling feel when swapping from stock parts.

Installation notes: this carrier installs where the original rear hub carrier mounts, using the same hardware and bearings from the Bullet 3.0 rear assembly. During fitment check for correct bearing seating and that the wheel hex aligns with the driveshaft; tighten mounting screws to the vehicle's recommended torque and recheck for binding.

Tuning considerations: because alloy carriers increase local stiffness, they can reduce flex under load and slightly change wheel camber and toe behavior under heavy inputs. Use this part alongside standard suspension tuning steps — adjust shock preload, arm geometry, and wheel bearings — to dial in balance rather than treating it as an isolated fix.
