BowHouse RC Axial SCX10 III SVT Panhard Reinforcement Bracket
About this part
The Bowhouse Axial SCX10 III SVT Panhard Reinforcement Bracket was designed to add strength to the panhard mount on the stock AR45 portal axle housing. Bowhouse designed this panhard reinforcement bracket to bolt right onto the stock housing, allowing easy installation with with no modifications. Plus, it's precision machined from aluminum, so it provides the strength needed to stand up to the abuse your rig will see on the trails, or on the rocks.
Installation notes:
- Start by removing right front tire. Then remove screw securing right front shock and lower link to the axle housing.
- Unscrew panhard mount from axle housing.
- Snap panhard reinforcement bracket onto front of axle housing around existing panhard mount so that secondary screw hole is visible through the hole in the axle housing truss.
- Use M3 x 8mm flat head screw to secure bracket to axle housing through hole in axle housing truss (thread lock recommended).
- Use M3 x 20mm flat head screw to attach panhard to axle (do NOT use thread lock). Make sure that screw threads all the way into panhard reinforcement bracket.

It’s a good add on for your scx10 iii, I got it just because
This was the first part to break on my scx10.3 and the BowHouse replacement has held up to years of abuse on a heavy rig. I would absolutely recommend this upgrade. It’s a one and done purchase.
this reinforcement is installed in the axle. If you are looking for the panhard mount for the chassis, that's a different part.
I would consider this one of the best durability upgrades for the SCX10 III. Both ends of the pan-hard bar mount are weak in my opinion so this is a great step in avoiding headaches on trail. Fit and finish are excellent as always from BowHouse.
Awesome little reinforcement part for the axle Panhard/Trackbar mount, would recommend to anyone with a SCX10III
Six reviewers, all rating the product 5/5, describe a reinforcement bracket for the SCX10 III panhard and trackbar mount. Several report it held up to heavy use, with one saying the original part broke first and the replacement lasted years. Reviewers praise the fit and finish and say it mounts into the truss with two screws. One reviewer notes that the bracket reinforces the axle-side mount, not the chassis-side panhard mount, which is a separate part. One reviewer prefers button-head screws over the supplied flat-head screws. No reviewer reports a failure or other significant problem.
