Precision aluminum gearbox stay for TAMIYA Hotshot models

This aluminum gear box stay with stabilizer mount replaces the original plastic stay on TAMIYA Hotshot family cars. It gives a firmer mounting surface for the gearbox and a dedicated stabilizer mounting point to reduce side-to-side movement under load. The part is finished in gun metal and intended for hobby-grade use only.

Fitment follows the original product intent: it fits Hotshot and Super Hotshot in both front and rear gearbox locations, while for Hotshot II it matches the front gearbox only. Double-check which gearbox you are servicing so you order the correct location-specific piece.

Fitting is straightforward: this is a direct swap that uses the existing mounting holes and fasteners from the stock plastic stay. Its main benefits are improved chassis stiffness around the gearbox, a fixed stabilizer mount, and more consistent gear alignment during tuning and running.

How do I check if I need the front or rear stay for my Hotshot?

Inspect your chassis and compare the plastic stay location with the gearbox position. Hotshot and Super Hotshot use the same stay at front and rear; Hotshot II requires the front stay only. Measure mounting hole locations if unsure.

Are extra fasteners required when installing this aluminum stay?

No special fasteners are required; the stay installs using the stock hardware and mounting points. If your original fasteners are worn, replace them with equivalent hardware to secure the aluminium piece properly.
