This alloy battery box serves as an RC-scale replacement for Tamiya Ford F350, Toyota Hilux and Tundra pick up trucks and is supplied as a pair. The aluminium tray stiffens the battery mount compared with the original plastic, helping to secure common RC battery packs during scale or trail use.
Practical design targets stable mounting and reduced rattle while providing a metal surface compatible with standard chassis fasteners. Before fitting, measure battery thickness and check cable routing; align the box with existing threaded posts or chassis holes to prevent interference with the ESC or motor wiring.
Fitting advice: position the pack inside the tray to check clearance under the body, reuse original screws where possible, hand-start all fasteners then tighten to the recommended torque to avoid damaging the threads.
Ideal when you want a firmer battery mounting for scale running or moderate off-road, but always check fitment on your specific Tamiya pickup chassis before final assembly.
