SUPPORT BEARINGS AND GEAR BOXES

[SCHWEREPANZER]

Hi All,

I'm looking for advice from the collective wisdom that forms this forum.

I'm in the early stages of building a Tamiya Tiger II. The chassis is fully built and I've temporarily fitted Kenny Kong tracks. They are heavy and lifting the beast pulls the drive sprockets slightly. So, I know I need to attach support bearings. But which ones? I'm also looking to a gear box set up. The model, when completed, is going to lead a relatively gentle operational life, but I still want it to have a robust transmission for it.

Any advice is much appreciated.

To be honest the flex is probably coming from the chassis. You would do well to fit a gearbox brace which should stop this flex. As far as bearings go

Might be worth trying eto see if he's got any stock

Thanks Gents,

I'm looking into just which ones might work now.
