This set contains two steel drive shafts intended as a direct swap for the factory plastic shafts in Tamiya DT02, DT03, and TT02B drivetrains. Ideal for scale electric on-road and touring configurations, the shafts make for a simple upgrade when metal components are required for better wear resistance.
These shafts are specified for use with the Tamiya plastic cup joint only and are not compatible with Tamiya 53790. Fit carefully: check cup engagement, drivetrain alignment and clearance to gearbox and bearings, and confirm smooth rotation before final assembly. They serve as a tuning upgrade by lowering deformation under load relative to stock plastic parts, helping to keep spur and pinion engagement steady under demanding driving.
