Yeah Racing SCX10 III brass diff cover

Made for the Axial SCX10 III trail truck is a new brass differential cover from Yeah Racing. The part is machined from high-quality brass material and it weighs in at 41g, allowing to add weight in one of the lowest areas of the chassis in order to extract more tyre traction and thus climbing performance if needed, all while also adding a bit of stability to the axle assembly. The cover sports a laser-engraved Yeah Racing logo for looks and it will hit stores very soon.
