GPM Racing Titanium Rear Chassis Skid Plate 5mm Thick for Losi 1/5 5IVE-Te 3.0 Electric 4WD Desert Truck RTR (5T3/331R)

Rear chassis skid plate for LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0

This 1/5-scale rear chassis skid plate is machined from titanium and designed specifically for the LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 platform. At 5mm thickness the plate adds low-profile reinforcement to the rear underside of the chassis, helping to resist abrasion and impacts encountered on loose or rocky surfaces during typical off-road runs.

The part is produced with a wire-cut machining process, so fine machining marks and occasional slight burrs at edges are normal and do not affect strength. Minor surface scratches can occur during handling or transport; these are cosmetic and will not reduce structural integrity when installed on the RC chassis.

Hardware for mounting is supplied in the package and the accessory is assembled to simplify fitment. For reliable retention use a medium-strength threadlocker on the fasteners to prevent loosening under vibration, and verify torque on the existing hex screws after initial runs. Installation requires basic disassembly of the rear chassis area and standard hex drivers.

In setup and tuning terms the skid plate serves as a sacrificial, structural protection item rather than a tuning component. It does not alter suspension geometry or drivetrain ratios, but it can reduce chassis wear and provide a consistent contact surface when sliding over obstacles, which helps maintain predictable handling at speed.
