How often should I replace my wheel hubs?

Wheel hubs are typically replaced when they show signs of wear, cracking, or damage, or if a wheel begins to wobble despite proper tightening.

Where can I find installation instructions?

Refer to the original instruction manual that came with your Tamiya Buggy Champ or Sand Scorcher model for detailed installation steps.

What is the Tamiya part number for this item?

Troubleshooting

Wheel wobbles after installation

Ensure the wheel nut is tightened correctly and that the wheel hub is fully seated on the axle. Check if any old debris is present.

Hub does not fit the axle

Verify that you are using the correct hub for your specific Tamiya model and that you are attempting to install it on the correct axle (front vs. rear).

Lost a small component from the bag

Contact Tamiya customer support or your local hobby shop for information on purchasing individual replacement components if available, or consider purchasing a new bag.
