Technical bearing upgrade for Tamiya F350 HILUX drivetrains

The 3RACING BS-HL/V1 bearing set is specified to replace factory bushings in the Tamiya F350 HILUX, delivering consistent low-friction rotation across axles and shafts. Precision components reduce rolling resistance and help maintain stable drivetrain temperatures under repeated runs.

Advantages for competitive setups

High quality ball bearings reduce mechanical loss and wear at contact points, improving power transfer and repeatable lap-to-lap behaviour. For tuning-focused hobbyists, bearings allow finer assessment of other setup changes.

Installation and maintenance protocol

Use a controlled press or bearing driver to seat each unit squarely and avoid side loading. Clean housing bores and verify radial play is within tolerance. Apply a small quantity of low-viscosity oil or race-specific bearing lubricant and schedule regular inspections after heavy use.

Can sealed bearings be substituted for extra protection?

Sealed bearings add contamination resistance but slightly increase drag. For high contamination environments, sealed variants are recommended; for pure performance, low-friction open or shielded bearings are preferred.

What tolerance checks should I perform after fitting?

Verify axial runout and radial play by hand and under light load. Confirm bearings rotate freely with no binding and that housings are not distorted by installation.

Which lubricant suits track tuning?

For tuning and racing, use a thin synthetic bearing oil to minimise drag while retaining protection. Reapply at set maintenance intervals to keep performance consistent.
