Converting Tamiya Tiger road wheel bushings to bearings

Post by Sarah »

Hi Guys,

I was thinking of reaming out the Tamiya Tiger road wheels so that I can fit bearings instead of the supplied bushings.  Has anyone done this and do you think it is worthwhile.


Many thanks,

Sarah

HI Sarah,in this build section GLORY71 has a Tamiya Jagdpanther build thread where he describes changing the road wheels to ball bearings from Steve@welshdragon models,so If you contact Steve I'm sure he can answer your question on changing to bearings and most likely he will have the bearings,his link is at the bottom of the home page,Blake
