Overview
Add low-mounted weight and bulletproof durability to your Traxxas TRX-4 with the Hot Racing CNC Solid Brass 41g Steering Knuckle Portal Gear Cover. CNC-machined from solid brass, this direct-replacement portal gear cover adds 41g (1.4 oz) of weight per side at the lowest possible point on the chassis — exactly where you need it for improved climbing stability and side-hill composure.
Compared to the heavier 76g and "super heavy" brass knuckles, this 41g version offers a more moderate weight gain — perfect for drivers who want noticeable low-CG benefits without going to the extreme weight of the heaviest options. It's a smart middle-ground upgrade for serious scale drivers.
