Replacement Bearings Tamiya Leopard 2a6

[cmlourensz]

Hi Folks,
I have just purchased the Tamiya Leopard 2A6 - my first rc tank.
Is it recommended to replace the bearings with an aftermarket set from the onset of the build?
Or are the ones that come with the kit fine?
If so, what do you recommend?
In conjuction with this, what other after-market mods would be recommended to prevent heart-ache down the track.
Thanks for your responses.
Clyde.

hi there, my leo is all standard apart from the heavy impact tracks and runs on grass no worries it has been driven by all the kids in my sons class and its pretty tough out of the box. i think upgrades would be what you want to put in but they are a tough tank .

Hey Ruben,
Thanks for the advice.
Will probably save me a few $$$.

Bearings and metal swing arms. Probably the only things I'd do (and have done).

Is there a particular brand re the bearings or are they pretty much the same?
