Pair of Tamiya 94386 AO-1008 830 bearings for improved rotation

The Tamiya 94386 AO-1008 830 Bearing set swaps in for stock plastic bushings to provide smoother axle movement and reduced friction. This modest upgrade helps refine drivetrain efficiency for enthusiasts looking for reliable gains.

Functionality and suitable models

These bearings reduce friction at axle mounting points so the motor encounters less resistance. They are compatible with a wide selection of Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis and are commonly applied to MS and MA designs as a simple performance tweak.

Race day impact

Smoother wheel rotation helps sustain speed through sequences of corners and on longer straights, leading to more predictable lap times. The bearings support consistent drivetrain behaviour under typical racing conditions.

Fitting guidance

Fitting the Tamiya 94386 AO-1008 830 Bearings is direct and requires minimal tools. They replace the existing bushings without modification; confirm seat alignment and wheel runout after fitting for best results.

After pressing them in, spin the wheel assembly by hand to ensure smooth rotation and no lateral play. Inspect for any rubbing against the chassis.
Yes. Metal bearings typically run with less squeak and harsher noise than worn plastic bushings, especially once they are clean and lightly lubricated.
They are compatible with standard axle materials used in Mini 4WD. Check clearances when using thicker or non-standard axle shafts to avoid interference.
