Tooth count and gear pitch must match the intended transmission, so part number 60221S should be confirmed before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same as the plastic HSP 34T idler gear?\u003c\/strong\u003e It performs the same idler-gear function on compatible transmissions, but 60221S is the steel version. Retailer feedback specifically identifies it as an alternative to the plastic idler gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a steel idler gear make the RC car faster?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. Replacing an idler gear with a steel version does not by itself change the transmission ratio when the tooth count remains the same.
