Preserve TA-08 Drivetrain with Tamiya 51670

The Tamiya 51670 TA-08 Front Belt (132T) is a purpose-made spare for the TA-08 PRO chassis, intended to restore accurate front drive operation. It is a practical choice for club racers and hobbyists alike.

Intended Fitment

Made for the TA-08 layout, this front belt provides correct engagement with the chassis pulleys to maintain smooth delivery and reduce drivetrain noise. Using the correct belt avoids unexpected handling changes.

Routine Installation Steps

Install the belt with attention to pulley alignment and even tension. After a short run, recheck tension and tooth seating to confirm the belt is running correctly and will not skip under load.

Will this belt affect lap times?

A fresh, correctly tensioned belt helps keep drive response consistent, which can improve predictability and lap consistency rather than raw speed.

Is special alignment required?

Standard alignment of the pulleys is sufficient. Ensure the belt teeth sit cleanly on each pulley and avoid side loading during fitting to prevent premature wear.

How to spot uneven wear?

Uneven wear shows as one side of the belt losing more material, or as glazing in patches. If you see uneven wear, check pulley alignment and bearing health before refitting a new belt.

Any quick maintenance checklist?

Check belt tooth condition, pulley edges and bearing smoothness. Clean debris from the pulley area and verify tension after initial running to catch early issues.
