The accurate tooth pitch ensures it meshes correctly with the TGX assembly to support consistent shifts and stable speed control.

Compatibility: Specifically matched to Tamiya TGX 2-speed transmissions
Functionality: Helps maintain gearbox efficiency and consistent vehicle speed
Application: Recommended for racing and performance-focused rebuilds

Is this pinion a direct swap for the stock TGX part?

It is designed for direct fitment to the TGX 2-speed transmission in standard configurations; always verify gear mesh after installation.

Can I expect reduced maintenance with a steel pinion?

Steel can extend service intervals versus softer materials, but routine checks of mesh, lubrication and adjacent components remain important.

Are there upgrade recommendations to pair with this pinion?

Consider upgrading spur gears, bearings and diff components if they show wear, as a steel pinion can transfer greater loads to those parts.

What checks should I perform after fitting the pinion?

After fitting, confirm correct backlash, spin the transmission to check for binding and run a short test at low speed to ensure smooth engagement.
