Trim rotating mass with a targeted drivetrain upgrade

RC builders looking to tighten up handling will appreciate the Tamiya 54586 lightweight gear shaft. Built for GF-01, WR-02 and WT-01 chassis, these shafts reduce drivetrain weight to improve responsiveness and efficiency on track or trail.

Performance gains from a lighter shaft

The Tamiya 54586 shafts use a thin-walled tube construction that cuts roughly 5 grams compared to standard kit shafts. This reduction - from 7.6g to 2.5g - lowers rotating mass for crisper acceleration and more precise cornering.

Fitment and simple installation

These gear shafts fit GF-01, WR-02, WR-02G and WT-01 models. Installation is straightforward and requires no major changes to the chassis, making it an easy upgrade for hobbyists wanting better handling without a big rebuild.

Yes. The shaft dimensions match the original kit parts, so they are compatible with the stock differential assemblies on supported chassis.
No special tools are required. Basic hobby tools like pliers and a screwdriver are sufficient for removal and installation on most builds.
They are designed for normal hobby use and provide good durability, though extreme impacts may still bend or damage any lightweight shaft. Inspect parts after heavy hits.
