Replacement gears for retro Tamiya buggies

Keep classic Tamiya machines running with the 9005257 E Parts gear set. Designed for Thunder Shot, Dragon, Terra Scorcher and Fire Dragon, this set restores the drivetrain function for collectors and regular hobbyists alike.

Designed to match original specifications

The Tamiya 9005257 gears are shaped to slot into the original gear train of Thunder Shot, Dragon, Terra Scorcher and Fire Dragon models, ensuring correct spacing and smooth engagement when replacing worn parts.

Durable option for regular running

These gears are produced from robust materials to cope with normal hobby use and local track sessions. They are a straightforward choice when maintaining historic Tamiya buggies.

Can I use these gears in a vintage racer build?

Yes, they are suitable for restoring drivetrain function in Thunder Shot, Dragon, Terra Scorcher and Fire Dragon chassis. For high power builds check mesh and pinion compatibility first.

Do these gears need any special lubrication?

A light coat of quality gear grease on the gear teeth and bearings is recommended to reduce wear and noise. Avoid over greasing which can attract dirt.

Are replacement bearings required when fitting these gears?

Inspect existing bearings for play. If bearings show wear, replace them to ensure correct alignment and prolong gear life.

Will these gears affect top speed?

They restore original drivetrain efficiency but do not change gear ratios. Any speed change would come from different pinions or motor setups, not from the replacement gears alone.
