Upgrade drivetrain efficiency with Kyosho MDW001

Replacing stock bushings with the Kyosho MDW001 Ball Bearing Set reduces mechanical drag in MINI-Z AWD cars, giving a smoother rotation and more predictable handling under load.

Improved rolling and lap-to-lap repeatability

These bearings lower drivetrain friction so acceleration feels cleaner and lap times become more reproducible, particularly useful on tight or technical layouts.

Durability that saves time and money

With reduced wear on shafts and gear interfaces, the MDW001 bearings help extend service intervals and cut down on replacement parts for frequent club drivers.
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.

Are these compatible with all MINI-Z AWD chassis variants?

They are intended for MINI-Z AWD configurations, but it is sensible to confirm the bearing seat dimensions on your specific chassis before purchasing.

How often should I check the bearings?

Inspect bearings after every few running sessions for smooth spin and minimal play. Clean and re-oil as needed to maintain peak performance.

Will swapping to bearings affect handling balance?

Bearings reduce drivetrain losses uniformly, so handling balance should remain similar while overall responsiveness improves. Fine tuning of suspension may further refine balance.

Can I clean these bearings or do I replace them if dirty?

Light cleaning with a dedicated solvent and re-lubrication is usually enough. Replace bearings if you notice persistent roughness or excessive endplay.

Are there obvious signs a bearing needs replacing?

Yes: grinding noise, stiffness when spun by hand, or side-to-side play indicate replacement is due. Address issues promptly to avoid gear or shaft damage.
