Upgrade an AXIAL SCX10 III Jeep JT Gladiator with the GPM SCX1660TS gearbox belt drive, made from 6061-T6 aluminium and rubber parts. The assembly boosts structural integrity and shock tolerance while cutting down on gearbox noise for a more refined driving feel.
The GPM SCX1660TS belt arrangement reduces gearbox noise and lessens shaft impact compared with metal gears. Bear in mind that belt systems often transfer less peak power than straight gear drives. Confirm motor shaft size before fitting; the accepted diameter is 3.175mm.
First, place the original metal plate into its gearbox location. Select and fit the correct friction disc into the pulley groove, then install the bearing to centre. Reinstall the metal plate, anti-skid spring and nut in sequence. Bring the gears together, route the belt over them and then adjust the spacing to obtain consistent belt tension.
