You could always drop them a message and ask them? Then if they don't fit you can return them.

The other option is to buy some Taigen steel gearboxes designed for the tank that you want to fit them into, probably cheaper and maybe stronger?

I've had two brass drive shafts fail on me (one snapped the other bent then snapped when I tried to straighten it) so in future I'd avoid any gearboxes with brass drive shafts.

MARC Hi, From personal experience I can tell you that WALTERSONS brass gearboxes DO fit HENG LONG Tanks and come with a mounting plate to do so, they will not fit TAIGEN metal hulls. :thumbdown: :thumbup: shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:
