Tamiya DT-Series Aluminum Gear Box for DT02/DT03/DT04/Hornet EVO - JR-THNE06-GU by Jazrider  [JR-THNE06-GU]

Precision-machined gearbox for DT-series chassis

This aluminum gear box serves as an aftermarket, direct-fit housing made specifically for the named Tamiya DT platforms. Finished in gun metal anodize, it replaces the standard plastic center pod with a machined unit aimed at delivering greater rigidity and repeatable gear alignment for scale RC use.

Fitting involves removing the factory plastic gearbox and transferring the spur, pinion, bearings, and shafts into the new housing where applicable. Basic teardown of the DT center assembly is required; keep small parts sorted and use standard hex drivers for a clean installation. This product is intended solely as an RC accessory for model vehicles.

As part of tuning, a more rigid gearbox housing lowers flex under load, preserving spur-to-pinion mesh and contributing to steadier traction and longer gear life when matched with correct bearings and motor/ESC choices. Recheck gear mesh and bearing preload after installation to prevent premature wear.

Use this housing when you want a stiffer center pod to better support drivetrain loads and improve consistency on DT-series vehicles, always checking mesh and clearances during the build.
