Aluminium under-gear shield for SCX24

This aluminium lower gear cover is crafted for the Axial SCX24 1/24 scale 4WD chassis to protect the gearbox and lower driveline components from trail hazards. The plate gives a solid contact surface beneath vulnerable parts to reduce impact damage on rocky routes.

Compatibility is confined to SCX24-class Axial Racing chassis per the product title. The finish is black and the unit is presented as a realistic scale accessory intended for trail and crawl scenarios.

Fitting is generally simple for those familiar with RC upgrades: the plate bolts into the existing lower mount points without permanent chassis changes. Before final tightening, verify clearance throughout axle travel and steering motion to avoid interference.

Tuning note: the metal cover alters skid behavior under the gearbox by providing a tougher sliding surface; this improves protection but may add low-mounted mass. Fit it when protection outweighs the small change in handling feel.

Constructed from aluminium, the plate resists dents and abrasion better than plastic. It will reduce direct impact to drivetrain parts but inspect after heavy use for any deformation.
Yes, a metal skid adds weight low on the chassis which can lower the center of gravity slightly; this often helps stability but can affect slow-speed responsiveness.
No permanent modification should be required. The plate is designed to use the SCX24 lower mounting points, though you should confirm screw sizes before assembly.
