This 6 piece axle housing assembly is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminium as a direct upgrade to the stock plastic front and rear housings on SMT10-scale vehicles. Components are machined to preserve original gear alignment and mounting points so the existing axle internals install without gearbox modification.
Critical design features are retained, including the 4mm x 4mm service screw hole for faster lubrication access and screw bores sized for the supplied stainless steel hardware. The 6061-T6 material improves abrasion resistance and impact tolerance where housings make contact with terrain and rocks in scale monster truck operation.
Engineered as a hobbyist upgrade, the metal housings enhance axle stiffness and deliver a durable mounting solution where factory plastic housings are susceptible to wear and deformation.
Specifically intended for SMT10 applications, these CNC housings provide a precision engineered metal alternative to plastic parts, easing maintenance access while offering robust mounting for the original axle gears and bearings.
