A21) Install the 4-40 X 3/8” cap head bolt (XF6001) in
the lower corner of the trans case, just finger
tight for now to hold things together.
A22) The X Factory 4-Gear motor plate (XF1232) has two “extra” holes (left
photo) which are useful to install the optional ES008 heatsink and fan.
Arrows in the right photo point to the three holes that attach the motor
plate to the transmission. Team drivers put a drop of threadlock now in
these three holes. Don’t put the threadlock on the bolts as it will come off
going through the transmission.
A23) Insert the three 4-40 X 1” screws
through the three holes that go into the
motor plate and attach the motor plate
(arrows). The center rear hole will not
be used on the SCX – 60CF due to a
clearance issue. Use a crossing
pattern to tighten all four trans bolts to
equal tightness. Check one last time
that the transmission rotates free and
smooth. This is your last chance!
