Description

Spares for Technic builders

Service packs let builders buy particular groups of parts without needing a whole set. This one is about gears and differentials, the pieces that make up gearboxes and drivelines. Its 23 pieces are mostly light grey, black and dark grey, the usual Technic palette of those years. There are no figures or extras, just a base for models with moving axles.

Few kinds, several of each

The 23 pieces come from only 10 different elements, so some gears appear more than once. That helps when you want to build gear ratios from matching wheels. The parts list on this page shows exactly which elements are included and in what quantity. With Technic parts that is worth a look, because gears differ in size and tooth count and cannot simply be swapped for one another.

FAQ

Is there a finished model to build?
