Upgrade Your Boy's 4WD with Lightweight Shafts

The Tamiya 53320 Lightweight Gear Shaft Set is a sensible upgrade for Boy's 4WD cars where trimming rotating mass is the goal. It is aimed at enthusiasts who want a practical, low-effort performance improvement.

Handling and Acceleration

By lowering rotational mass, these shafts help the drivetrain react faster to throttle inputs, often improving acceleration feel and mid-corner response. They are a tidy way to sharpen handling without changing gearing.

Compatibility and Fit

Designed to suit many Boy's 4WD models, the set works as a direct replacement in common configurations. Confirm fitment against your model specs to ensure a seamless swap.

Installation Advice

Fitting is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic RC maintenance. Use the usual toolkit, apply light lubricant where recommended, and verify smooth operation after installation to extend part life.

Lighter shafts primarily improve acceleration and responsiveness; top speed is more influenced by gearing and motor choice but can benefit indirectly from improved drivetrain efficiency.
Yes, you can combine lightweight shafts with other upgrades, but check compatibility and clearances when mixing different materials to avoid binding or premature wear.
Keep shafts clean, lightly lubricated and inspect for play after heavy use. Replace if you notice bending or excessive wear to protect other drivetrain parts.
No special tools are required beyond standard RC hex drivers and pliers. A small torque driver helps keep fasteners consistent but is not essential.
