Strengthen Your F201 Drivetrain with Tamiya 53522

RC racers who need firmer drivetrain response will find the Tamiya 53522 Universal Shaft Set a straightforward upgrade for the F201. The steel components reduce flex and improve power delivery for cleaner acceleration and more consistent handling.

Main Benefits of the Tamiya 53522 Universal Shaft Set

Material: Made from heavy-duty steel to resist bending in crashes and repeated use, extending service life.
Functionality: Improves the efficiency of torque transfer from motor to wheels, leading to more direct throttle feel.
Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Tamiya F201 chassis to ensure correct fitment and easy installation.

Specifications

Contents: Includes two swing shafts, four 2×9.8mm shafts, two wheel axles, two cross joints, four 3×2.5mm set screws, one allen wrench, one instruction sheet, and a container of anti-wear grease.

How difficult is the installation for someone familiar with the F201?

If you have basic experience servicing an F201, swapping to the Tamiya 53522 shafts is straightforward and typically takes under an hour using the provided allen wrench and the car's standard tools.

Will this set handle higher power motors and modified drivetrains?

The steel shafts are better at coping with increased torque than stock parts, but you should still check related driveline components and ensure bearings and diffs can handle the extra load.

What maintenance is recommended after fitting the shafts?

Keep set screws tight, reapply the supplied anti-wear grease occasionally, and inspect cross joints and axles for play after a few runs to ensure long life.
