This 2 pcs bevel gear set, designated SMJ1200, is a CNC-minded upgrade for AXIAL SMT10 platforms. Machined from hardened steel to tight tolerances, the gears are intended to replace worn factory bevels and restore uniform engagement and load distribution in demanding rock-racing and heavy-duty SMT10 applications.
The pair contains one front and one rear bevel gear engineered to mate with the vehicle's existing gearbox and bearing stack. Installation best practice is to remove the original bevels, confirm bearing alignment and gear mesh, then install the steel gears ensuring axial and radial clearances are correct. Rotate the driveline by hand to validate smooth operation before applying load. These components maintain the OEM gear ratio while enhancing resistance to wear under torque.
Tuning and service notes: verify pinion-to-spur alignment, inspect hex fits and bearing condition, and apply a light film of gear-safe lubricant to contact surfaces to minimise early wear. Schedule periodic inspections for pitting or micro-deformation as part of routine maintenance to protect the gearbox internals.
Use the SMJ1200 steel bevel gears when replacing degraded bevels on compatible AXIAL platforms, follow correct mesh and bearing procedures during fitment, and carry out regular inspections to preserve driveline integrity.
