Sturdy aluminum front gearbox tailored to Tamiya Hotshot platforms

This precision-machined aluminum front gear box is intended to replace the factory plastic housing on Tamiya Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang and Bigwig cars and is offered as model JR-THS12-LB. The blue-anodized case adds rigidity and resists wear better than the original plastic while preserving stock mounting points.

Installation suits hobbyists experienced with Hotshot-series maintenance; the part uses the existing screw pattern and alignment features. During the fitment process, inspect gear mesh and bearing positions, and normally retain your original internal components unless performing a full drivetrain upgrade. The strengthened housing helps keep front gears aligned and reduces flex under load for more consistent operation.

For enthusiasts working on Hotshot-family rigs, the JR-THS12-LB aluminum housing provides a reliable upgrade to reduce drivetrain play and improve long-term serviceability without changing gear geometry.

Aluminum offers greater rigidity and better resistance to impact deformation than molded plastic, so it typically extends service life under heavier use.
The blue anodize is cosmetic and thin; it does not alter mounting dimensions or interfere with bearing seats when manufactured to spec.
No special reinforcements are required for normal use. Check fastener torque and bearing seating during installation to ensure the housing performs as intended.
Yes. This housing is supplied as the case only and is designed to accept the stock internal gears and bearings from the compatible Tamiya models.
