Precision Aluminium Motor Mount for DB02 Chassis

The Tamiya 54403 Aluminium Motor Mount (OP-1403) is designed to swap in for the factory die-cast bracket on DB02 cars. The anodised blue finish protects the part while the tighter shaft coupling can lead to cleaner drivetrain behaviour.

Benefits of Aluminium Parts

Aluminium gives a useful mix of stiffness and low weight that racers like. Replacing the die-cast piece with this mount improves durability and trims excess mass, helping cornering and acceleration feel more direct.

Fitting Notes for Best Results

Fit the mount with care, ensuring screw threads and alignment are correct so the motor shaft runs true. A correct install reduces gear wear and yields steadier power delivery through the gears.

It is optimised for the standard DB02 layout; some DB02 variants may require slight modification or spacers to clear different motor positions.
Aluminium conducts heat well so the bracket can help dissipate some motor heat, but overall motor cooling depends on airflow and the motor itself.
You can reuse quality hardware, but inspect screws for wear and consider stainless or threaded steel fasteners; apply a small amount of threadlocker for high-vibration use.
