I recently received some drive shaft bearings for my Heng Long Tiger 1 with metal tracks, drives, idlers, and road wheels. The company the bearings came from is called Kenzezol in China? Ordered them in April and they showed up yesterday. They offer drive shaft bearings for several of the Heng Long tanks. The bearings come press fit into a sort of cup shaped plastic flange that looks just like the inner part of what comes on the tank. There are two plastic trim pieces surrounding the drive shafts on each side glued to the tank lower hull. A larger piece has some detail molded in and the smaller cup piece that seems to be glued into that larger piece. Do I need to remove this whole assembly ( I assume it's glued on ) or do I just remove the smaller cup piece and replace it. I assume it's also glued in. Also it doesn't look like the driveshafts are centered all that well. Do I shim the motor gearbox assembly to align them with the plastic flanges or shift the trim pieces to match the shafts?
