This full ball bearing set is supplied by 3Racing for use with the Tamiya CR01 chassis. It replaces plain bushings and fixed-fit parts in the drivetrain and wheel hubs with running bearings to reduce friction and provide a smoother mechanical interface for RC scale crawling and off-road driving.
The set is intended as a maintenance and tuning item rather than a performance upgrade that changes vehicle geometry. Installing ball bearings reduces rotating resistance across the drivetrain, can lower rolling drag on wheels, and helps components run cooler under long low-speed loads typical of crawling or technical trail sections.
Installation notes: remove existing bushings or pressed-in bearings carefully, verify each bearing seat for fit and axial play, and use light bearing oil or grease recommended by your bearing supplier. Check pinion and spur clearances after install and confirm the wheel hexes and axle preload remain within manufacturer tolerances for the CR01 chassis.
For CR01 owners who prefer lower drivetrain drag and smoother rotating assemblies, this bearing set from 3Racing provides a straightforward replacement path; follow standard bearing care and fitment checks to maintain long-term reliability.
