Axial SCX10 Front/Rear Axle Guard Aluminium Hybrid - SCX168F/R by GPM  [SCX168F/R]

Scale axle guard for SCX10 rigs

This axle protector mount is built for use on Axial Racing SCX10 chassis and carries the model code SCX168F/R. By pairing aluminium plates with engineered plastic sections the design balances local reinforcement with controlled give to reduce transmitted shocks to axle housings and suspension anchors during slow-speed rock work.

Designed to attach to front and rear axle housings, the guard shields common impact points and scrapes. It works as a replacement bracket that routes contact away from differential covers and link mounts without altering drive-line alignment when installed as intended.

Installation follows standard SCX10 procedures: remove the stock cover, position the protector over the screw bosses and secure using the vehicle's original fasteners. The aluminium zones take concentrated hits while the plastic areas absorb repeated knocks; always check for interference with steering links and full suspension articulation before finishing.

A practical aftermarket option for hobbyists looking to reduce axle face damage on SCX10 crawlers; double-check axle boss layout for proper compatibility prior to fitting.
