Upgrade Your Tamiya Hotshot Front with a JAZRIDER Aluminum Unit

For pilots who want a tougher front end on Tamiya Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang, or Bigwig models, the JAZRIDER JR-THS12-BK aluminum front gear box offers a durable replacement. The black anodised finish helps protect the housing while keeping a clean look.

Why Fit an Aluminum Front Box?

An aluminum front housing reduces flex compared to the stock plastic piece, helping keep gears aligned when you are pushing jumps or running rough surfaces. It is a sensible upgrade for anyone looking to cut down on front-end repairs.

Compatibility Notes and Fitting

This front gear box is manufactured to match the Hotshot series mounting layout. Fitting is designed to be straightforward with no chassis alterations needed, so it is suitable for quick upgrades between sessions.

Everyday Use and Club Racing

Whether used for club racing or weekend trail fun, this JAZRIDER unit gives reliable front-end performance and reduces the need for frequent part replacement.

Is this an exact bolt-on for the Hotshot chassis?

Yes. The JR-THS12-BK uses the same bolt pattern as the stock front gear box and installs without modification.

Should I change gear lubricant after fitting?

It is a good chance to inspect gears and re-lube if needed. The housing fit does not require a different grease, but fresh lubricant helps reduce wear.

Will the aluminium make the car more brittle on impacts?

Aluminum is stiffer than plastic and transfers force differently, but it improves long term durability of the front housing. Normal shock absorption should be handled by your suspension setup.
