Overview
The ARRMA Rear Lower Skid/Gearbox Mount in orange is an essential replacement chassis spare part designed for ARRMA 1/10 scale RC vehicles. Whether you're running an ARRMA FURY 223S BLX brushless short course truck, a GORGON MT monster truck, or a VORTEKS 2WD off-road vehicle, this rear lower skid and gearbox mount component is engineered to withstand the rigours of competitive racing and weekend bashing alike. This genuine ARRMA spare part is manufactured to original equipment specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and performance every single time you take your RC car UK to the track or field.
As an RC enthusiast in the UK, you know that maintaining your ready to run RC vehicle with genuine spare parts is essential for reliability and longevity. The rear lower skid and gearbox mount is a critical component that protects your vehicle's gearbox and drivetrain from impact damage whilst also serving as part of the chassis structure. When you bash hard or race competitively, components like this skid mount absorb impacts and vibration, preventing damage to more expensive internal components. Having a quality replacement on hand means you can get back on the track faster without compromising performance or safety.
This single-piece orange mount is not just a functional replacement—it also provides an opportunity to customise your ARRMA RC vehicle with coloured chassis spares that match your personal style and build aesthetic. Available in multiple vibrant colours across the ARRMA spare parts range, you can mix and match to create a truly unique look for your 1/10 scale machine.
Key Features
- Tough composite construction — This rear lower skid and gearbox mount is manufactured from durable composite materials that are engineered to absorb impacts and vibration whilst maintaining structural rigidity during aggressive driving. The composite design provides an excellent balance between lightweight performance and impact resistance, making it ideal for bashers and racers who push their RC cars to the limit.
- Coloured part for vehicle customisation — Rather than being a plain black or grey component, this skid mount comes in a vibrant orange colour that allows you to customise and personalise your ARRMA vehicle's appearance. This means you can coordinate chassis spares across your vehicle for a more cohesive and professional look, which is especially important for competition-level RC drivers in the UK who want their machines to stand out on track.
- Genuine ARRMA original equipment spare — This is an official ARRMA part manufactured to exact original specifications, meaning it will fit perfectly and perform exactly as the engineers intended. When you buy genuine spares from RC Model Shop, you can be confident you're getting authentic parts that meet ARRMA's quality standards, not third-party copies or inferior alternatives.
- Drop-in replacement design — This rear lower skid and gearbox mount is engineered as a direct replacement for the original component on your ARRMA vehicle, requiring no modifications or adjustments during installation. Simply remove your damaged or worn mount and bolt on the replacement—no special tools or technical knowledge required.
- Compatible with multiple ARRMA models — This single spare part works across an extensive range of ARRMA 1/10 scale vehicles including the FURY 223S BLX brushless short course truck, the GORGON MT monster truck, and the VORTEKS 2WD platform, making it a versatile addition to your spare parts box.
Technical Performance
The rear lower skid and gearbox mount is manufactured from composite materials that provide an optimal balance of strength, weight, and impact absorption necessary for 1/10 scale RC vehicles. This component forms part of the critical chassis structure that protects your gearbox, motor mounts, and drivetrain from collision damage during aggressive driving. The mount is engineered to work seamlessly with ARRMA's suspension geometry and drivetrain components, ensuring that once installed, your RC car performs with the same precision handling and durability as it did from the factory. The composite construction resists cracking and shattering under repeated impacts that would destroy inferior plastic parts, whilst remaining lightweight enough not to add unnecessary mass to your vehicle. Whether you're racing a brushless electric RC buggy at high speeds or bashing through rough terrain, this mount provides the structural integrity needed to keep your expensive gearbox and motor safe from damage. The orange colour has been selected to provide high visibility and aesthetic appeal whilst maintaining the same performance characteristics as any other colour option in this product range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What ARRMA vehicles does this rear lower skid mount fit? — This genuine ARRMA spare part is compatible with the following 1/10 scale vehicles: FURY 223S BLX brushless short course truck (both green and blue variants), FURY 2WD with or without battery and charger (available in green, blue and red), GORGON MT monster truck (available in multiple colours including yellow, red, purple, gunmetal and blue), and VORTEKS 2WD with or without battery and charger (available in orange and purple). If you own any of these ARRMA models, this is the correct replacement mount for your vehicle.
- Why would I need a replacement rear lower skid mount? — The rear lower skid and gearbox mount is the primary protection for your gearbox and drivetrain during driving. When you bash hard, race competitively, or crash your RC car, this component absorbs the impact and can crack or break. Additionally, wear and tear from thousands of miles of driving can cause the mount to fatigue and fail. Having a genuine replacement on hand ensures you can get your vehicle back on the track within minutes rather than waiting days for repairs.
- Is this a genuine ARRMA part? — Yes, absolutely. This is an official ARRMA original equipment spare part with the manufacturer part number Z-ARA320796 and EAN code 5052127046961. When you order from RC Model Shop, you're purchasing genuine ARRMA products direct from an authorised UK retailer, not counterfeit or third-party alternatives that may not fit properly or perform reliably.
- How difficult is it to install this mount on my ARRMA vehicle? — Installation is straightforward and requires no special tools beyond a basic hex wrench or Allen key set that you likely already own for RC maintenance. The mount simply bolts into place where the old one was removed. Most experienced RC enthusiasts can complete the installation in under five minutes. If you're new to RC maintenance, the simplicity of this replacement makes it an excellent first spare parts project.
- Can I use this on other brands of RC cars? — No, this mount is designed specifically for ARRMA 1/10 scale vehicles. The bolt hole patterns, mounting dimensions, and overall design are engineered specifically for ARRMA chassis geometry. Using this on other brands would likely result in poor fitment and potential performance issues.
- What colours are available for this rear lower skid mount? — ARRMA offers this component in multiple colours including orange (this listing), green, blue, pink, red, and fluorescent yellow. This allows you to either match your vehicle's original colour or create a custom look by mixing colours across different chassis spares.
