Genuine gearbox joints for vintage Tamiya models

The Tamiya 9808129 Gear Box Joint provides a reliable spare solution for owners of older Tamiya buggies like the Hotshot, Boomerang and Super Hotshot. This two-piece set restores drivetrain smoothness and helps retain original handling characteristics.

Fitment details

These joints are intended for a range of Tamiya kits and are compatible with series numbers such as 58391, 58418 and 58517. They work as replacement parts for worn components, helping to preserve vehicle performance during club runs or restoration projects.

Simple maintenance steps

Install with reference to your model manual and ensure all parts are free of dirt and old grease. Check adjacent gears and bearings while the gearbox is open, and apply light lubricant where recommended to prevent premature wear.

Yes, the set is listed as compatible with Boomerang and other Hotshot-line vehicles, but cross-check your parts diagram to confirm fitment for your specific chassis number.
Rotate the drivetrain by hand and look for play or rough spots in the joint. Visible scoring or looseness means the joint should be replaced.
Minor dirt can be cleaned, but once the mating surfaces show wear it is better to replace the joints to maintain reliable power transfer.
Work methodically, label small screws, and test the gearbox free of loads before refitting it to the chassis. This helps spot alignment or binding issues early.
