Improve F103 drivetrain smoothness with the Tamiya 51346 kit

The Tamiya 51346 Thrust Bearing Set is intended to enhance the mechanical behaviour of F103 series chassis. Economical and practical, it reduces wear in the drivetrain and promotes cleaner movement for cars including the F013, F103RS, F103RX, and F103RM.

Practical benefits for circuit drivers

By lowering friction at key junctions, thrust bearings make steering inputs more direct and handling more consistent. The 51346 set helps drivers who value repeatable performance around technical circuits.

Installation guidance and maintenance notes

Fitting is straightforward for anyone familiar with RC servicing. Begin with a spotless chassis, remove the worn bearings, and fit the replacements ensuring correct seating. Regular cleaning and inspection will keep them working well.

They are specified for the F103 family noted above. For other Tamiya models check bearing dimensions before assuming fitment.
Yes, you may notice a smoother steering feel and reduced drivetrain lash. It is advisable to re-check trims and lap times after fitting to confirm setup tweaks.
Keep them free of grit, clean periodically, and replace when rotation is no longer smooth. Avoid heavy greases that attract dirt unless specified by your build notes.
No special kit is essential, though soft presses or bearing pullers help avoid damage. Many hobbyists use basic hand tools with care to swap bearings.
