Upgrade Tamiya Hotshot drivetrains with the JAZRIDER JR-THS13-BK

The JAZRIDER JR-THS13-BK black aluminium rear gear box is built to replace the factory plastic unit on Tamiya Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang and Bigwig models. It gives a more durable backbone to the rear end, suited to rough club tracks and beach runs.

Why aluminium makes sense for RC use

Aluminium improves chassis stiffness and resists deformation under stress, so gears and bearings stay aligned longer. The JR-THS13-BK balances strength with low extra mass, helping the truck keep predictable behaviour even when driven hard.

Compatibility and simple swap over

Designed for straightforward installation, this rear gear box installs using standard RC tools and the existing mounting points. Few shims or adjustments are needed for most Tamiya Hotshot family vehicles.

Will this fit an older Hotshot from the 80s?

In many cases yes. The JR-THS13-BK targets the common Hotshot platform; check your chassis mounting points and compare to the original gearbox before purchase.

Is corrosion a concern with aluminium near salt air?

Aluminium resists rust but can oxidise. Rinse and dry the part after exposure to salt air and apply a light protectant if you run on beaches often.

Can I reuse my stock gears and bearings?

Yes. The JR-THS13-BK accepts the original gears and bearings in most installations, allowing a straightforward upgrade path.
