The most recent electric versions of the Rustler, Stampede, Bandit and Slash have several new features that caused interference issues with our original RPM molded gear cover for the Stampede & Rustler. We expanded the area of the gear cover over the motor shaft to compensate for the longer motor shaft of the XL-5 & VXL motors. We narrowed two areas along the perimeter of the gear cover to allow clearance for the rear bumper / wheelie bar mount as well. These changes now allow this gear cover to fit all versions of these awesome vehicles

Not only do they look great, they will protect those expensive gears like nothing else available! RPM's new gear cover will pay for itself the very first time you run through the dirt and nothing enters your gear case. No more blown gears from rocks and debris!

RPM Gear Covers for the electric versions of the Traxxas Stampede, Rustler, Bandit and Slash are sold in black or blue and carry our limited lifetime warranty against failure due to materials or workmanship issues.

Key Features:

  • An oversized access hole and soft plug for easy access to the slipper clutch nut while still maintaining an unmatched seal of the gear mesh area
  • Stock gear covers have a large, open gap between the spur gear and the out-drive that allows gear destroying dirt to
  • More clearance for larger pinions for owners hungry for speed
  • Retains all stock geometry for easy bolt up; no cutting or gluing required

I purchased this item as I was getting dirt/grass built up in the gear mesh area with the stock cover.

This does work as intended, however in a tumble (which is often with our stampede basher) the shock tower can push against the cover and kind of pop it out of position. You can hear it as soon as it does it because thd spur lightly contacts the cover and makes a noise.

Kind of annoying to have to pop it back in place all the time. I didn't have that problem with the stock spur cover.

One of the single best upgrades you can make to your Slash. This will keep dirt/debris from getting into the gear area and will greatly extend the life of your pinions and motor. This is a must have!!!
