Consistent Drivetrain with FP-O-AP0006

The Factory Pro FP-O-AP0006 Main Idle Gear 28T restores consistent operation to Tamiya T3-01 models by replacing worn or damaged idle gears. It is intended to be used with the O-AP0004 setup to ensure correct engagement and rotation.

Made to Match T3-01 Components

This idle gear is shaped to fit the T3-01 transmission layout, making installation straightforward. It is a sensible choice when servicing the gearbox or when the original part shows signs of wear.

Everyday Workshop Benefits

Carrying a spare 28T idle gear helps reduce time out of action after routine checks or track incidents. It supports steady torque flow and helps retain predictable handling during use.

Can I fit this gear to an aftermarket gearbox?

Aftermarket gearboxes vary, so verify tooth count and shaft fitment before installing. The FP-O-AP0006 is made for the T3-01 layout and O-AP0004 arrangement.

Do I need special tools to install FP-O-AP0006?

Basic hobby tools like hex drivers, needle-nose pliers and small screwdrivers are normally sufficient. Clean the area and handle bearings carefully when changing the gear.

Should I reuse shims when fitting the new gear?

Reuse existing shims only if they are undamaged and provide correct endplay. Otherwise replace or adjust shims to achieve proper gear mesh and axial movement.

What are common signs of idle gear wear?

Look for uneven or missing teeth, noisy meshing, increased backlash or metal particles in the gearbox. Those signs suggest a replacement is needed.
