This alloy front gearbox plate is manufactured for the HPI Bullet 3.0 platform and comes as a single piece. It suits nitro MT and ST scale models using the WR8 or Bullet 3.0 front gearbox arrangement and replaces the standard plate when you need a firmer option for servicing or repair.
Role and fitment: the plate clamps the front gearbox assembly and keeps gears and bearings correctly located within the WR8 / Bullet 3.0 front end. Using an alloy plate gives steadier alignment under load and makes gearbox servicing more predictable.
Fitting advice: remove the front assembly to access the plate, swap any bearings or seals as required, then refit using the correct hex screws. Standard RC workshop tools will do the job; confirm gear mesh and bearing seating as you reassemble and do not over-tighten fasteners.
Who it is for: owners and tuners working on WR8 and Bullet 3.0 nitro MT/ST cars will find this plate useful for replacing damaged parts after impacts, refreshing the chassis during a rebuild, or stabilising gearbox alignment when adjusting setups.
