Upgrade the XV-02 with the Tamiya 22048 slipper clutch

The Tamiya 22048 - XV-02 Slipper Clutch Set is a practical upgrade for pilots wanting to protect their drivetrain while gaining smoother traction control on low-grip tracks. Designed for the XV-02 platform, this kit helps absorb sudden torque spikes and keeps the car more controllable when traction is limited.

Core parts included in the kit

  • Slipper Plates: Plate A and Plate B are supplied to balance torque transfer across the drivetrain.
  • Slipper Shaft and Cup: Precision parts that maintain smooth rotation and steady engagement.
  • Slipper Spring and Nut: Adjustable spring tension lets you fine tune slip characteristics for your setup.
  • Spur Gear and Spacer: Helps keep gear mesh aligned and adds durability under load.
  • Ball Bearings: Two 1280 bearings reduce friction for more reliable performance.
  • Stainless Steel Shaft and Axle Ring: Tougher materials to increase service life in the driveline.

Fitment and straightforward installation

This slipper clutch set is made specifically for the XV-02 chassis, offering a direct fit with parts organised for easy assembly. Hobbyists with basic mechanical skills can install and adjust the set to suit their driving style without special tools.

Yes. The set is engineered for the XV-02 chassis and installs with the original mounting points, so no chassis alterations are required for a stock vehicle.
Use the slipper spring and nut to change preload. Softer settings let the wheels slip earlier on loose surfaces, while firmer settings transfer more power on high-traction runs.
Inspect the bearings and plates for wear, clean grit from the assembly, and re-lubricate contact points. Replace worn springs or plates to keep consistent performance.
