Built for SO series 2WD off-road platforms, this aluminum rear hub carrier swaps in for the factory resin item to increase stiffness and make handling more consistent under stress.
In practice the aluminium carrier reduces hub flex during heavy impacts and strong acceleration, helping the chassis hold its line on jumps and through corners. The same height insert fits this carrier, so you can retain or modify roll centre and skid angle without changing the mounting layout.
Because the finished bores are precise, we advise installing new bearings during the upgrade; pressing in worn bearings may complicate future servicing. This component concentrates on reliable handling gains rather than cosmetic alteration.
This aluminium replacement is aimed at drivers wanting a firmer rear hub assembly and more reproducible handling; fit new bearings and confirm roll-centre settings after installation to get the best results.
