Straightforward bearing upgrade for TA04 and TA04S

Swap worn bushings or tired bearings with the JAZRIDER metal shielded ball bearing set to reduce friction and improve component life on the TA04 chassis. It is a practical tweak for hobbyists seeking more consistent performance.

Practical advantages of shielded bearings

Metal shields help keep debris out while maintaining smooth rotation, cutting down on the frequency of cleaning. That makes them useful for mixed-surface use and regular weekend running.

Pack breakdown

This specific bearing set includes:

  • 8 pieces of 5 x 11 x 4 mm bearings
  • 4 pieces of 5 x 8 x 2.5 mm bearings
  • 3 pieces of 3 x 7 x 3 mm bearings

Totals 15 pieces, covering the major bearing locations on the TA04 so your steering and drivetrain components get dependable support.

Will installation need new seals or spacers?

Most installs use the existing seals and spacers from the TA04. Check each mounting point and reuse parts where they match the bearing outer diameter and width.

Can these bearings handle higher RPM setups?

Shielded bearings are suitable for common motor speeds used in TA04 setups. For extreme RPM builds, monitor heat and vibration and consider high speed rated bearings if needed.

How do I check bearing wear?

Spin each bearing by hand and feel for roughness or play. Replace any unit that shows binding, noise, or excessive side play to maintain predictable handling.
