Pinion Gear 9T LaTrax

This 9-tooth pinion gear is designed for Traxxas/LaTrax 1/18 models and allows you to fine-tune your gearing so you can hit the perfect balance between acceleration and top speed. By changing the tooth count on the pinion, you can adapt the car to different surfaces, temperatures, and driving styles – from technical tracks to long full-throttle runs.

Traxxas pinion gears are known for precise fit and reliability, giving you smooth and efficient power transfer from motor to drivetrain.

Usage and gearing tips
Changing pinion size significantly affects the car’s characteristics:

• Fewer teeth (like this 9T compared to larger pinions):

• More acceleration and better low-speed pull
• Lower top speed
• Less load and heat in motor and ESC
• More teeth:

• Higher top speed
• Less acceleration
• Increased heat buildup and load

Traxxas always recommends that you follow the gearing charts in the manual for your specific model, especially if you drive in hot weather, on heavy surfaces, or with more powerful batteries.

Instructions

• Always check your car’s instruction manual/owner’s manual for:

• Recommended gear combinations (pinion/spur)
• Any limitations when using other battery types
• After installation:

• Check for correct mesh between pinion and spur gear
• Do short test runs and check motor and ESC temperatures

In short: This 9T Traxxas pinion gear is an obvious choice if you want strong acceleration and good control on your LaTrax Teton or LaTrax Desert Prerunner, or if you simply need an original replacement for the included gear.
