I wouldn't bother with this product... Hot Racings' customer service is 100% unhelpful, even after sending pictures they refused to help me. I went back and forth with their CS rep for days and they employed any-and-everything they could to avoid accountability, this as it pertains to manufacturing a shit product. In short, the set screw threaded hole for securing the motor came damaged new in box (NIB); the hole wouldn't fit an M3 or M4 screw. It was so bad from the get go that it wasn't worth the time to tap and drill, thus, it was beyond repair NIB, which is unacceptable. I.e., I figured repairing it was pointless given that it was brand new and it couldn't be said it's a cheap piece, price-wise -- but quality-wise it was cheapo aluminum and manufacturing. The amount of money this single part has cost me is irreparable but what really infuriorates me was HRs lack of service and accountability. The CS rep there literally told me that AMain should be giving me my money back, essentially changing the focus off their wrongdoing and blaming AMain. We ALL know AMain has the best CS in the world, and I'm not disillusioned about who's at fault. It's 100% HR! These chintzy products stripped the first time I wrenched with 'em. Yes, during installation on brand new Lo-CG chassis from Traxxas. Not okay, HR! For shame.
Very rugged upgrade! Oversized bearing is a must have for Slash Ultimate. Also it has good quality of aluminium. If you are planning to buy it - you would not regret! The only thing - there is no rubber seal for telemetry stub, but you can take it from the stock motor mount
Works great on my Traxxas Rally. Great fitment and no issues.
Works great, and is nice with the over sized bearing. Had no fitting problem. Little wear after multiple uses where the bearing sits. Also looks nice with the anodized blue, and some blue aluminum shock caps.
Reviewers mostly rate this aluminum LCG motor mount highly, citing good fit, rugged build, and the oversized bearing. Three of four reviews are 5/5 and describe no fitting problems. One reviewer reports a damaged set-screw threaded hole out of the box that would not accept an M3 or M4 screw, and says the manufacturer's customer service did not resolve it. One reviewer notes the mount lacks a rubber seal for the telemetry stub, which can be taken from the stock mount. One reports minor wear where the bearing sits after multiple uses. Reviews refer to the Slash 4x4 listing, with one owner describing use on a Traxxas Rally.
