I've used some washers or whatever I have around that is roughly the same diameter.

5mm shims should do it, lots of companies make em, Losi, Tamiya, HPI to name a few, i did not have to shim mine when i swapped gears, might depend on the bushings/bearings you have in there.

| Re: Shims to help backlash? I know that hpi makes some just don't know part number. So was seeing if someone out there might know the part number. Thanks for the help and info.

i use these, work great! Team Durango 5x7x0.2mm Distance Shim Set (10) [TDR709015] | Hardware & Fasteners - A Main Hobbies installed 2 frt and rear on the outside so the pinion gear couldnt go back in. Tried one on the inside but it was way to tight. |

Would using these shims help with the pinion pushing the bearing out?
