Always check your specific vehicle's manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility with your particular ready to run RC car or truck before ordering.
• Why should I replace my RC car bearings? — Ball bearings are wear items in RC vehicles that experience constant rotation during use.

This sealed design extends bearing life significantly and maintains consistent performance in dusty or wet conditions, making them ideal for outdoor RC car use.
• How often should I replace my RC bearings? — The frequency of bearing replacement depends on how intensively you use your RC vehicle and the driving conditions. Regular inspections of your RC car's bearings will reveal any play, grinding sounds or rough rotation. Many RC enthusiasts keep spare bearings like the TRX5180 on hand to replace them during routine maintenance or immediately when wear is detected.
• Are these compatible with all Traxxas models? — The 6x13x5mm size is a standard bearing dimension used in many Traxxas RC cars and trucks, but compatibility varies by model.
