do you think a pair of 4:1 brass gearboxes will be strong enough to make my tamiya king tiger moving? because atm it has plastic heng long ones which do make it move but it does struggle on carpet ALOT, and after i put metal gearboxes in my heng long tiger and saw how well they worked, am thinking the 4:1 brass gearboxes will make my king tiger (which is obviously alot heavier) work offroad well?

You won't be disappointed. I've fitted those gearboxes in my HL Jagdpanther. They are excellent.
