DB02 Drivetrain Protection with the Tamiya 54336 Slipper

The Tamiya 54336 Slipper Clutch Set is an essential upgrade for tuners wanting better drivetrain resilience on a DB02 chassis. It helps soak up shocks from aggressive acceleration, sudden stops and heavy landings to lower stress on gears and shafts.

What Comes in the Kit and How It Fits

Included are pressure plates, a dedicated slipper shaft, spacers, washers and a spring, engineered to align with DB02 mounting points. Installation is user friendly so most modders can fit it quickly during a routine service.

Practical Gains from a Slipper Clutch

Fitting a slipper clutch can extend drivetrain life and improve control by limiting torque spikes to the transmission. It is especially helpful for drivers who run powerful motors or frequent uneven surfaces.

Basic hobby tools are sufficient: hex drivers, pliers and a spanner for clutch nuts. A service manual for the DB02 helps with alignment steps.
If you notice wheelspin, reduced drive or unusual noise after hard runs, check and adjust the slipper preload. Small increments make tuning easier.
Yes, the slipper helps absorb impact shocks that can otherwise strip gears during heavy landings, offering smoother power transfer on jumps.
Wear items like friction plates and washers should be checked and replaced as needed. Keeping spare washers and a spring is a good idea for regular maintenance.
