FAQ

Stiffen your TA06 with hardened metal cross shafts

The Tamiya 54311 RC TA06 Cross Shaft for Gear Differential Unit OP-1311 is a straightforward upgrade for builders who want a firmer drivetrain. Replacing the factory resin cross shafts with metal units increases stiffness and helps the differential run more smoothly under load.

Advantages of swapping to metal cross shafts

Metal cross shafts reduce flex compared to resin originals, keeping gears better aligned during hard acceleration and corner exits. That stability can deliver more predictable handling and reduced wear on gear teeth when driving hard or racing on abrasive surfaces.

Which models and how to fit them

These metal cross shafts are designed for the TA06 platform and fit the TA06 PRO as well. Installation is basic: remove the old resin shafts from the gear differential unit and press in the metal replacements. No special machining is required for a standard TA06 setup.

FAQ

Will these shafts handle higher torque motors?

The metal cross shafts offer greater rigidity than resin, so they tolerate higher torque better. They do not change gear ratios, so pair them with suitable pinion and spur choices and check mesh after installation.

Do I need extra tools to swap the shafts?

Basic hand tools like small screwdrivers and needle-nose pliers are usually enough. Work on a clean bench, keep parts organised, and verify diff alignment before final assembly.
