They mesh under constant load and are among the more highly stressed gears in the drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRing and pinion are always replaced as a matched pair, and that is why Traxxas sells them as a set. The two wear into each other over time, developing a mating pattern specific to that pair. Fitting a new pinion against a worn ring gear produces poor mesh, noise, and rapid failure, so replacing only one is a false economy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSymptoms of wear are usually audible before they are visible: whining or grinding from the rear end under power, or a change in noise as the drivetrain loads and unloads. Left alone, worn gears eventually strip teeth and can take other differential components with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNote that Traxxas also lists a metal rear ring and pinion set under 10579X at a higher price point, which is the more durable option for higher-power setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Traxxas replacement part for the 4-Tec.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Traxxas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55691699814722,"sku":"TRA10579","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/5063\/8402\/files\/10579.jpg?v=1785870370","url":"https:\/\/www.powerhobby.com\/products\/traxxas-10579-differential-ring-and-pinion-gear","provider":"PowerHobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
