Reliable bearing swap for the Tamiya TGS chassis

The Jazrider JAZRIDER JR-CBR-TM-013 metal shielded ball bearing set converts factory bushings into low-friction rolling elements for the Tamiya TGS chassis. That transition lowers mechanical resistance and helps components spin more freely under load.

Kit breakdown

Packaged to suit the Tamiya TGS layout, the set contains 19 bearings:

  • 8 x 12 x 3.5 mm (3 pieces)
  • 5 x 11 x 4 mm (14 pieces)
  • 5 x 8 x 2.5 mm (2 pieces)

Everyday advantages for RC use

Replacing bushings with precision bearings can reduce drivetrain drag, leading to smoother acceleration and steadier handling. This upgrade is useful for longer runs where lower friction helps preserve battery life and component temperatures.

Keep the metal shields in place for general use; they protect against grit while keeping lubrication inside. Only remove shields if you need higher top-end performance and plan to relube regularly.
Confirm the bearing outer diameter fits the chassis bores snugly. A loose fit can cause movement and wear, while an overly tight bore risks bearing damage during installation.
Bearings generally reduce servicing of rotating parts, but inspect and relube as part of routine maintenance to ensure long service life, especially after dusty runs.
