TRAXXAS TRX4 Trail Crawler Aluminum Double-Sided Motor Mount Plate by GPM TRX4018L  [TRX4018L]

Motor mount plate for TRX4

This aluminum double-sided motor mount plate is an RC-scale accessory designed for TRAXXAS TRX4 Trail Crawler platforms. The plate uses integrated heat sink fins on both faces to increase surface area and improve passive motor cooling during extended low-speed crawling.

Key mechanical details provided by the manufacturer include a part thickness of 13mm, which is stated as 8mm thicker than the original part to increase rigidity and shift the motor forward slightly to help low-speed traction and balance while crawling. The package includes stainless steel flat head screws 3x14, 2pcs for attachment.

Installation is a chassis-level upgrade: it replaces the stock motor mount, retaining the motor and gearbox arrangement while adding material stiffness and additional cooling mass. When tuning for crawling, the combination of added forward mass and increased mounting stiffness can reduce motor movement under torque and improve predictability at crawl speeds.

This mount plate is intended for RC trail crawler setups where added motor stability and improved passive cooling are priorities; check existing motor and gearbox clearances before fitment.
