Refine Drive Performance with the Tamiya 56561 Kit

Model makers who want quieter, smoother operation will find the Tamiya 56561 Ball Bearing Set a practical mod. By replacing standard metal bearings, the kit reduces drivetrain drag for softer gear engagement and steadier running.

Kit Breakdown

The 56561 collection includes bearings sized for common truck mounting points. Inside the pack you will find:

  • 2 x 1260 ball bearings
  • 32 x 1150 ball bearings
  • 2 x 850 ball bearings

Compatibility and Fitting Tips

Specifically made to fit Tamiya models 56362 and 56366, this set is intended for direct replacement of the original metal bearings. Proper fitment reduces wear and can improve overall handling consistency.

Can I use these bearings on vintage trucks?

If the original bearings match the sizes in this kit, they can be used. Always check diameter and width before fitting to older parts.

Do bearings improve battery life?

Lower friction typically reduces motor load, which can slightly extend runtime under the same driving conditions, especially on long runs.

Are special tools required?

A small press or bearing driver set makes installation cleaner, but many modellers manage with soft-jaw pliers and careful tapping using a socket.
