The Axial Racing SCX-10 Aluminium Skid Plate & Linkage Set provides a metal replacement for factory plastic underbody components, delivering added underside protection and stronger lower-link accuracy for SCX-10 crawlers.
Functionally, the skid plate shields the chassis belly from rocks and abrasive surfaces while the aluminium lower links maintain link geometry more reliably under load compared to flexible plastic. The package is intended to enhance durability and tuning response rather than purely cosmetic appeal.
Installation notes: components are produced to match Axial SCX-10 factory mounting points; correct alignment depends on matching hole patterns and spacings. Retain original hardware where feasible, align parts carefully before final torque, and check full suspension travel after fitting. Typical hobby hex drivers and wrenches are sufficient for assembly.
Maintenance and tuning advice: check fastener torque after initial sessions, remove grit from contact surfaces regularly, and adjust shock or anti-roll settings if the stiffer links change vehicle feedback.
For NZ-style trail use, this aluminium skid and link set for the Axial SCX-10 gives a practical route to improve underside protection and reduce link flex while keeping installation within standard hobby skills.
