Aftermarket Main Gear 55T for RC18T

This 55T main gear is intended for the Associated RC18T platform, manufactured in titanium and accompanied by an alloy adaptor. It replaces the standard spur where a 55-tooth option is preferred for tuning gearing or handling characteristics.

Installation notes: supplied as a one-set replacement, the included alloy adaptor helps secure the gear to the gearbox interface. Always set gear mesh carefully with your motor pinion and confirm centre mesh across the suspension range to prevent binding.

Tuning role: choosing this titanium 55T aims to improve wear resistance and maintain consistent tooth profile under stress, while the alloy adaptor ensures stable seating in aftermarket housings. Use it when fine-tuning gear ratios or seeking greater drivetrain longevity.

Yes, it is a direct replacement but you should use the supplied adaptor as required and adjust shims or wave washers to achieve correct mesh.
Titanium offers improved wear resistance and holds its profile under load, making it a sensible choice for higher stress or frequent running compared to softer materials.
Yes, re-check gear mesh and center spacing after an initial run as new gears can settle and may need minor shim adjustments to prevent binding.
