This replacement second gear housing for the Mugen MRX5 offers a direct-fit aluminium alternative to the stock plastic unit. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminium, the Arrowmax AM-MRX5-H0289 reduces local flex around the second gear and gives a stiffer mounting location for drivetrain parts.
Fitting is straightforward for anyone used to MRX5 teardown: remove the factory housing, move across any bearings or spacers, then secure the new housing using the MRX5 mounting points and your original screws. After installation, recheck gear mesh and shaft alignment to ensure quiet, smooth operation.
As a chassis-level hop-up this housing lowers compliance in the gearbox area, which helps when setting gear engagement, checking bearing play, and fine tuning drivetrain behaviour during setup sessions.
