Upgrade Your TRF201 with the Tamiya 51417 Thrust Bearing

The Tamiya 51417 thrust bearing is intended to keep the TRF201 chassis running with reduced axial resistance. This ball thrust unit helps maintain smooth drivetrain action for track days and general running.

Why Choose This Bearing

Precision fit for the TRF201 chassis to ensure correct seating and dependable operation.
Cuts friction at thrust points to help preserve gears and other drivetrain components.
Recommended for builders who prefer staying with original Tamiya replacement parts.

Is this compatible with aftermarket diff setups?

Compatibility depends on the specific aftermarket parts; confirm bearing dimensions and seating before mixing components to ensure proper fit.

Do I need special tools to install it?

A simple bearing press or a carefully used drift and mallet will work. Keep the bearing square during installation to avoid damage.

What lubricant should I use?

Use a light bearing oil or thin synthetic oil for thrust faces; heavy grease can trap grit and reduce performance.

How do I tell when it needs replacing?

Feel for roughness or binding when rotating the bearing by hand, and listen for unusual drivetrain noise under load. Replace if any grit or play appears.
