Machined aluminum front gearbox for TAMIYA Hotshot family

This aluminum front gear box replaces the original plastic housing fitted to several classic TAMIYA 1/10 off-road kits. It is offered as a direct-fit replacement for the Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang and Bigwig front gearbox locations.

Built as a machined aluminum housing, it provides a stiffer mounting surface while continuing to use the same internal gears and bearings from the stock drivetrain. The design concentrates on front-end rigidity and preserving correct pinion-to-spur alignment when installed on the listed chassis.

Installation notes: the housing is intended for bolt-in replacement using the model's original screws and hardware. Check gear mesh, driveshaft alignment and bearing condition during assembly. Internal gears and bearings are not included unless the seller specifies otherwise; confirm supplied items before installation.

Specifications

  • Item: Front Gear Box
  • Material: Aluminum
  • Model Number: JR-THS12-BK
  • Compatibility: Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang, Bigwig

Choose this aluminum front gearbox when you need a metal replacement housing for front drivetrain service or tuning on the specified TAMIYA chassis; verify fitment and retained parts before purchasing.

The housing is made to fit the Hotshot, Super Hotshot, Boomerang and Bigwig front gearbox locations listed in the product details. Confirm your chassis uses the same front gearbox footprint before ordering.
Most sellers list this item as the aluminium housing only, so you will typically reuse the original gears and bearings. Verify the package contents with the vendor.
The unit is designed for bolt-in replacement using the model's existing fasteners, but you should check fastener lengths and alignment during installation to ensure proper mesh.
Standard RC hand tools and a set of hex drivers will cover most tasks; inspect screw types and use correct torque to avoid striping the threads.
