DB-01 Low-Friction Bearing Pack

This ball bearing pack, catalogued as BS-DB01/V1, replaces the original wear items on the TAMIYA DB-01 chassis with steel precision bearings. The parts reduce rotational resistance in drivetrain shafts and steering assemblies.

Swapping in these bearings in place of stock bushings or worn units restores smoother gear and wheel rotation and helps maintain consistent throttle and steering response over a run. The kit is suitable for model-level maintenance and light tuning rather than body or chassis changes.

Fitment advice: remove existing bushings or bearings using the DB-01 service procedure, inspect mating surfaces for wear, press in the new bearings and refit components per the chassis instructions. Inspect and lightly lubricate steel bearings periodically to prolong service life.

Practical effect: precision bearings reduce drivetrain drag, improve the repeatability of driver inputs and simplify troubleshooting of any vibration or binding that can affect lap consistency. Include BS-DB01/V1 in regular maintenance or before competition runs.

They reduce internal friction so gear engagement feels smoother, but actual gear ratios and top speed remain unchanged.
Yes. Press bearings squarely into their seats and ensure shafts run true to avoid premature wear or binding.
Solvent cleaning is acceptable if bearings are re-lubricated afterwards; avoid leaving them dry which accelerates wear.
