Kyosho 96648 Shims for Cleaner Gear Mesh

The Kyosho 96648 Shim Set supplies thin 5x12x0.15mm shims to help you dial in component clearances with minimal fuss. Use these shims to fine-tune axles, gearboxes and suspension linkages for more consistent performance.

How Shims Improve Performance

Small adjustments with shims can reduce vibration, stop side-to-side play, and improve load distribution across gears and bearings. The set of ten makes it easy to try different combinations until you find the correct tolerance.

Where To Apply These Shims

Typical applications include packing out pinion gear spacing, adjusting differential bearings, and removing slop in wheel hubs. Correct shim use helps prevent uneven wear and keeps components running smoothly for longer periods.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How thick are these shims exactly?

Each shim measures 5x12x0.15mm, which is thin enough for fine incremental adjustments in tight assemblies.

Can these help with steering play?

Yes. Adding or removing shims in steering linkages or hub carriers can remove unwanted movement and tighten the steering feel.

Is this pack suitable for spares on race day?

The ten-piece Kyosho 96648 set is compact and useful to carry as spares for quick trackside adjustments or routine maintenance.
