This bearing kit is built for use with the Tamiya F104 chassis and carries the BS-F104/V1 model code. It serves as a swap-in option for degraded or budget bearings fitted in 1/10 scale formula and touring builds derived from the F104 layout.
These bearings lower rolling resistance at common rotating points like wheel hubs, motor shafts and gearbox bearing seats, helping the car deliver crisper throttle feel and steadier drivetrain behaviour over multiple runs. Fitment references the F104 RC platform only and does not cover non-RC or full-scale uses.
Installation is a basic bearing replacement: remove worn units, clean the seats, then press the new bearings evenly into place to avoid tilt. After installation confirm free spin and absence of lateral play, and maintain with periodic cleaning and light lubrication using RC-approved products.
