For RC builders aiming to refine their Tamiya TGX setups, the Tamiya 53196 Wheel Axle Ball Bearing Set replaces the stock bushings with precision bearings to deliver smoother wheel spin and steadier handling. The swap yields a noticeable reduction in friction and more consistent performance on both practice runs and club sessions.
Moving from bushings to ball bearings lowers rolling resistance and heat at the axle, improving drivetrain efficiency and cutting down component wear. Expect freer wheel rotation, less drag, and longer service life for axle parts.
Fitting the Tamiya 53196 Wheel Axle Ball Bearing Set is straightforward with basic tools. Clean the TGX wheel hubs and axle areas first, remove the old bushings, and press the new bearings in squarely to avoid misalignment.
This bearing kit is aimed at the Tamiya TGX family and suits models using the standard wheel axle bushings. It is a practical upgrade for everyday driving, tuning sessions, or light competitive use where reliability matters.
