Mount plate details for TRX-4

This RC motor mount plate is supplied as the JR-TRX402-BK replacement, manufactured by Jazrider for TRX-4 named applications. The aluminum construction is intended to locate the motor precisely and interface with the transmission area, providing greater stiffness than many stamped or composite mounts.

Fitment is specific to the TRX-4 designation in the title; do not assume interchangeability with other chassis without checking that the mount geometry and screw pattern match your vehicle's existing footprint.

Typical installation steps include removing the motor and original mount, transferring the motor plus any shims or spacers, and securing the new plate in the same screw positions. Ensure correct alignment between pinion and spur gears during reassembly to avoid excessive mesh or binding, as the plate is intended to assist with drivetrain alignment rather than replace other drivetrain components.

The aluminum plate also contributes to heat dispersion and mounting rigidity for scale and trail vehicles. Regularly check the tightness of mounting screws and inspect mounting holes for signs of wear to retain consistent motor positioning during off-road use.

Inspect the mounting holes for any elongation after trail runs, keep the screws correctly torqued, and watch for corrosion or burrs that could affect alignment.
The aluminum plate improves rigidity and heat dissipation, which can help with higher thermal loads, but verify gear alignment and mounting integrity when using more powerful motors.
Check gear mesh after the first few runs and then periodically after heavy or technical trail sessions to ensure nothing has shifted under load.
