Introduction to the Tamiya 15456 JR Setting Gear Set for AR

The Tamiya 15456 JR Setting Gear Set is a practical upgrade for Mini 4WD builders who want to refine AR chassis behaviour. Its multiple ratio options allow a tailored balance of acceleration and top speed.

Supported chassis and benefits

This gear set fits AR, VS, Super-II, Super TZ, and Super TZ-X chassis types. On AR machines the selectable ratios provide useful tuning flexibility for different course profiles and motor choices.

Tuning range and included hardware

Ratios from 3.5:1 to 5:1 give a useful spread for tailoring performance. The kit also contains a fluorine-coated gear shaft plus a 620 ball bearing to help reduce friction and promote consistent gear meshing.

Practical fitting guidance

The set includes a 1.4mm hollow lightweight propeller shaft alongside reinforced pinion and G-13 gears, all intended for straightforward assembly. These components are compatible with common AR-type builds and make gear swaps efficient.

Excellent service, two of the items I purchased were out of stock but was given fair options on refund, store credit or replacement. I opted for replacement as there was a different version available and one of the items did arrive bent and they sent out

What chassis can I fit this to?

It is compatible with AR, VS, Super-II, Super TZ, and Super TZ-X chassis, covering many standard Mini 4WD platforms.

How do I pick the best ratio for my circuit?

Choose a lower ratio for tight, technical tracks to improve acceleration, or a higher ratio for circuits with long straights to boost top speed. Test settings during practice to decide.

Should I replace bearings when fitting this set?

The kit includes a 620 ball bearing which helps with smooth rotation, but checking and upgrading other drivetrain bearings can further reduce drag.

Any tips for longer term maintenance?

Inspect gears and shafts after hard runs, keep contact points lightly lubricated, and replace worn gears to maintain predictable performance.

Can this kit improve consistency between runs?

Reducing friction with the supplied fluorine-coated shaft and quality bearing can help achieve steadier lap times, assuming proper setup and tyre tuning.
