Key Features
- Precision manufactured from lightweight aluminium — The use of aluminium construction significantly reduces vehicle weight compared to heavier materials, which directly improves acceleration, handling and overall performance of your RC car. This is particularly important when you're pushing for competitive times or simply want more responsive driving characteristics.
- Consistent hardware fit — Each motor mount plate is precision manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring that bolts, screws and other fasteners fit perfectly every time. This eliminates frustrating gaps, looseness or misalignment that can develop with cheaper aftermarket parts.
- Anodised red finish for authentic ARRMA styling — The anodised red coating gives your RC vehicle that genuine ARRMA appearance whilst providing a protective layer that resists scratches, scuffs and corrosion. This finish maintains its quality appearance even after extended use in dusty or wet conditions.
- Increased durability through anodising — Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a hard oxide layer on the aluminium surface, making it significantly more durable and resistant to wear than bare metal. This protective coating helps the motor mount plate withstand the vibrations and impacts of intense RC action.
- Precision manufactured screw mounting holes — The mounting holes are drilled and threaded with precision, allowing for fast and easy installation and removal when servicing your vehicle. No stripped threads or cross-threading means you can confidently service your RC truck without worrying about damaging the component.
- Excellent heat dissipation properties — Aluminium is renowned for its superior thermal conductivity, meaning heat generated by your motor during extreme RC action is efficiently dissipated away from the mounting area. This helps maintain consistent performance and extends the lifespan of other components in the drivetrain.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Aluminium Motor Mount Plate For Center Diff represents the engineering quality you'd expect from a leading manufacturer of brushless RC vehicles. Constructed from lightweight aluminium rather than plastic or stamped steel, this component delivers measurable performance benefits whilst maintaining structural integrity during high-speed runs and aggressive cornering. The anodised red finish isn't purely cosmetic — the anodising process creates a hardened surface layer that provides genuine protection against wear, corrosion and UV damage. The precision manufactured screw mounting holes ensure that fasteners engage cleanly without stripping, making future servicing straightforward. Whether you're running one of ARRMA's 1/10 scale brushless monster trucks like the Big Rock, Granite, Kraton or Outcast, or stepping up to 1/8 scale with the Infraction, Mojave or Typhon, this motor mount plate delivers the durability and performance you need. The aluminium construction actively assists in heat management during extreme RC action, which is particularly valuable when you're pushing your brushless motor hard across multiple battery packs in a single session.

Always check your vehicle's manual or our product compatibility list to confirm fitment before purchasing.
- Why choose an aluminium motor mount plate over plastic? — Aluminium offers several advantages over plastic alternatives: it's significantly lighter which improves vehicle performance, it dissipates heat more effectively which helps maintain consistent motor performance, it's more durable and resistant to impact damage, and it provides superior corrosion resistance. For serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who want their brushless RC truck to perform reliably, an aluminium motor mount plate is the superior choice.
- Is this a genuine ARRMA part? — Yes, this is a genuine OEM ARRMA part with the official ARRMA part number ARA311192. Buying genuine ARRMA spares ensures perfect fitment, consistent quality and full compatibility with your vehicle. RC Model Shop is an authorised ARRMA retailer in the UK.
- What does anodised mean and why does it matter? — Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of the aluminium. This process significantly increases durability, corrosion resistance and colour fastness. The red anodised finish on this motor mount plate won't chip or peel like paint, and it actively protects the underlying aluminium from moisture and UV damage.
- Will this fit my vehicle if I've made modifications? — This motor mount plate is designed for the center diff of compatible ARRMA models in standard configuration. If you've significantly modified your vehicle's chassis or motor mounting area, compatibility may be affected. We recommend checking with our expert team before purchasing if you've made substantial changes.
- How do I install this motor mount plate? — Installation involves removing fasteners from your existing motor mount plate, carefully detaching it from the motor and chassis, then positioning the new aluminium plate and securing it with the precision manufactured screw mounting holes. The detailed precision engineering means fasteners engage cleanly and quickly. Refer to your vehicle's manual for specific torque specifications.
