Precision aluminium rear diff housing for FW05

An aluminium rear differential housing designed for use with Kyosho FW05-R and FW05RR chassis. This part replaces the original plastic housing and supplies a machined mounting surface that improves strength and repeatable positioning within the rear driveline.

Use is restricted to the Kyosho FW05-R and FW05RR models listed in the product title. Installation involves removing the rear gearbox and reinstalling the differential assembly; take care to set correct gear mesh and confirm bearings are seated properly. The housing secures the diff gears and bearings in correct relation to the spur and pinion inside the rear module.

Setup notes: swapping to the aluminium housing can make the differential location more consistent under load, aiding adjustments to gear mesh, diff preload, and diff placement relative to suspension pick-ups. The description keeps a neutral, technical focus on compatibility and setup benefits.

Install this aluminium housing when replacing a degraded plastic piece or when you need a more stable mounting face for rear diff servicing and accurate setup on supported FW05 variants.

Yes, it is a direct replacement for the rear housing on FW05-R and FW05RR, but you should recheck gear mesh and bearing alignment during reassembly.
Aluminium offers a firmer mounting surface which can change how noise transmits, but correct gear mesh and bearing fit are the main factors for quiet running.
Shims are not normally required unless prior modifications altered spacing. Check bearing seating and mesh; add shims only if necessary to obtain correct mesh and preload.
A machined housing gives a repeatable datum for the diff, which simplifies tuning operations like setting mesh, adjusting preload, and checking the diff relation to suspension pick-ups.
