Technical Performance
The AS91466 Diff and Idler Gears represent precision engineering at its finest, manufactured to Team Associated's exacting standards. The differential gear is specified as 52 teeth at 48-pitch, a specification that balances torque distribution and responsiveness across your RC drivetrain. The matching idler gear at 31 teeth and 48-pitch ensures proper gear mesh and smooth power transfer through the transmission system. These gears work together to eliminate noise and vibration whilst maintaining the precise engagement characteristics that Team Associated vehicles are known for. The inclusion of a dedicated diff gear cover means your differential assembly is protected from environmental contaminants whilst the gears themselves are machined from high-quality materials engineered to withstand the stresses of both recreational and competitive RC driving. When combined with the optional #31350 screws (sold separately), you have everything needed to securely fasten your differential gear cover to the gear diff housing, completing your drivetrain maintenance or repair. The tight tolerances and quality materials used in these genuine Team Associated components ensure they'll deliver years of reliable service when properly maintained and lubricated according to your vehicle manual's specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these gears work in my Team Associated RC car? — The AS91466 gears are compatible with a wide range of Team Associated platforms including ProSC10, Trophy Rat, Reflex DB10, DR10, SR10, RB10, Pro2 SC10, DR10M, Pro2 LT10SW, Pro2 DK10SW, Pro2 RT10SW, SR10M Dirt Oval, RC10DR, Pro2 SC10sw RTR, and RB10 Retro. However, please note that the idler gear (31T 48P) specifically will NOT work in B4, T4 and SC10 transmissions. Always consult your vehicle manual or parts list to confirm AS91466 is the correct replacement for your specific model before ordering.
- When should I replace my differential and idler gears? — You should inspect these gears regularly during routine maintenance, typically every 4-6 weeks of active use depending on driving conditions. Replace them immediately if you notice excessive wear, chipped teeth, loose mesh, or grinding noises coming from your transmission. Sand and dirt can accelerate wear, so vehicles used in dusty conditions may need more frequent replacement.
- What tools do I need to install these gears? — Installation typically requires basic RC tools including screwdrivers, hex keys and potentially a gear puller depending on your vehicle's design. Consult your Team Associated vehicle manual for specific installation instructions and torque specifications. You'll also need Part #31350 screws to secure the differential gear cover to the housing.
- Are these genuine Team Associated parts? — Yes, absolutely. The AS91466 is a genuine Team Associated component, not a third-party aftermarket alternative. This ensures perfect compatibility, correct mesh specifications, and the quality standards you can rely on. When you order from RC Model Shop, you're purchasing authentic manufacturer parts.
- What's the difference between these gears and other options? — These are genuine Team Associated factory parts engineered to the exact specifications required by Team Associated vehicles. They provide the precise tooth count, pitch, and materials necessary for optimal performance. Aftermarket alternatives may offer lower prices but often fail to deliver the same reliability and performance characteristics.
- Do I need to lubricate these gears after installation? — Yes, proper lubrication is essential for smooth operation and longevity. Use the differential lubricant recommended in your Team Associated vehicle manual. Apply lubrication according to manufacturer specifications and check levels regularly during use.
