This aluminum gear box cover is an aftermarket replacement panel designed for the gearcases used on Tamiya DT02, DT03, DT04 and Hornet EVO chassis. As an RC-scale part it provides a rigid alternative to the stock plastic cover, intended for hobbyists who want a durable mounting surface and a tidy visual upgrade on their model.
Installation is straightforward for models that use the original cover: remove the plastic panel, align the aluminium cover with the original mounting points, and secure using the vehicle's existing fasteners. Check mesh and shaft alignment before initial run to avoid gear binding. The cover is supplied in black finish and is intended to work with the standard gearbox layout of the listed Tamiya platforms.
In tuning terms this part is used where stiffness and repeatable alignment are priorities, for example when swapping different spur gears, fitting aftermarket bearings, or during routine maintenance that requires a more stable panel than molded plastic offers. It is sold as a body part for RC models and does not include electronic components or drivetrain items.
