Durable Replacement: Factory Pro FP-O-AP0006

The Factory Pro FP-O-AP0006 Main Idle Gear 28T is a direct spare for Tamiya T3-01 drivetrains, designed to interface with the O-AP0004 assembly for correct gear engagement. It provides a clean swap when the original part is worn.

Compatibility with Tamiya T3-01

Built to fit the T3-01 gearbox layout, the 28T idle gear installs without major changes to the transmission. It is suitable for scheduled maintenance or repairs after impact events.

Practical Maintenance Advice

Keep a replacement idle gear in your toolkit to cut service time between running sessions. Regular checks of bearings, teeth and mesh help maintain drivetrain efficiency and reduce the risk of further damage.

What tools do I need to change the idle gear?

You will typically need a set of hex drivers, a small screwdriver, pliers and a clean workspace. Remove the gearbox cover, swap the gear and verify mesh and bearing seating before reassembly.

My drivetrain is noisy, could the idle gear be the cause?

Noisy meshing, grinding or intermittent engagement can come from a worn idle gear, incorrect mesh or damaged bearings. Inspect the gear teeth and bearing surfaces as a first step.

Will upgrades affect fitment of the FP-O-AP0006?

Most standard upgrades do not change basic idle gear fit, but modified transmissions or custom pinions may require checking tooth engagement and shaft compatibility before installation.
