This aluminium second gear housing replaces the OEM plastic piece on the Mugen MRX5 and is precision-machined from 7075-T6 for improved rigidity. The Arrowmax AM-MRX5-H0289 provides a stronger mounting interface where the second gear sits, helping to minimise flex under load.
Installation follows the same basic steps as the stock unit: remove the original housing, transfer any bearings, seals or spacers, and refit the machined housing using the MRX5 mounting points and your existing hardware. Once fitted, double-check gear mesh and shaft alignment to avoid binding.
Viewed as a chassis-level upgrade, this part reduces local compliance around the gearbox and aids in evaluating gear engagement, bearing play and other drivetrain adjustments during setup and maintenance.
