This full ball bearing set is supplied for the Tamiya GT-01 chassis bearing positions and is intended to reduce rotational friction across the driveline. It provides a direct replacement to worn bushes and high-friction bearings to improve rotational consistency under competitive loads.
From a setup perspective the GT-13 set is a tuning item: lower bearing drag helps make throttle and steering inputs more repeatable, which in turn lets suspension and drivetrain adjustments produce more predictable handling changes. Consider bearing condition when calibrating rigs for timed runs.
Fitting notes for the workshop: remove the old bearing or bushing, degrease and inspect seating bores, press the bearing squarely using an appropriate driver, and verify axial play and free spin prior to final assembly. Regular inspection during race prep cycles will maintain predictable driveline behaviour.
