Full ball bearing set for GT-01 chassis

This full ball bearing set is a dedicated RC-scale accessory intended for the Tamiya GT-01 chassis and its factory bearing locations. It supplies replacement bearings to address rolling resistance across drivetrain contact points, aiming for smoother rotational movement and more consistent component response during track or hobby use.

The set's role in setup and tuning is practical: swapping worn bushes or rough bearings for sealed ball bearings reduces friction losses, which helps maintain throttle and steering feel. For tuning, consider bearings as part of the driveline efficiency equation—low-drag bearings can make suspension and drivetrain adjustments behave more predictably under load.

Installation notes are straightforward and non-prescriptive: remove the old bearing or bushing from the hub or gearbox bore, clean seating surfaces, press the new bearing squarely into place, and check for lateral play and free spin before reassembly. Regular inspection and light maintenance will extend service life and keep drivetrain behavior consistent.

This set is specified for the GT-01 chassis, compatibility with other models is not guaranteed and should be verified by checking bearing sizes against the target chassis.
Inspect for play and roughness, clean seating areas before installation, ensure bearings spin freely after fitting, and replace if contact feels gritty or loose.
Yes, lower rolling resistance from bearings can change how the drivetrain transfers power and how the car responds, so re-check balance and handling after installation.
