Why Choose the #7R Gearbox Motor?
Not all gearbox motors are created equal. The #7R version stands out from older #7 models with a suite of upgrades engineered to tackle stress, torque, and long hours of play:
- Thicker Final Output Gear: Reinforced to endure higher loads without stripping, this gear offers lasting durability so your child can race over grass, gravel, and driveway cracks worry-free.
- Reinforced Nylon Construction: Crafted from a premium-grade, high-strength nylon composite, the internal gears resist wear better than ever—ensuring smooth acceleration and fewer interruptions.
- Optimized Shaft Dimensions: Internal shafts are precisely sized for a snug fit, reducing play and noise while boosting power transfer to the wheels for that satisfying roar of speed.
- 23-Tooth Pinion Pre-Installed: Fine-tuned for optimal gear engagement, the 23T pinion delivers a balance of speed and torque, so your ride-on car or truck enjoys both quick launches and controlled climbs.
- True 12 Volt Rating: Designed specifically for 12 volt Power Wheels ride-on toys, this motor matches the electrical system perfectly, preventing overheating and maximizing runtime.
Explore the #7R Variants
Depending on the production batch, you may receive one of two output shaft colors. While performance is identical, the slight visual distinction allows easy identification and future maintenance planning. Choose the version that best suits your style or simply enjoy the surprise when you unbox your replacement motor!
Variant 1: #7R with Orange Output Shaft
- Output shaft color: Bright Orange
- Ideal for parents who like vivid, easy-to-spot components during maintenance
- Perfect match for popular red and yellow ride-on cars that favor bold accents
Step into your garage feeling confident. The vibrant orange output shaft not only looks dynamic but also ensures that you can quickly identify the upgraded gearbox motor when juggling tools and components. This variant works flawlessly with Fisher-Price Power Wheels #7R gearboxes, so you’re back on track in no time.
Variant 2: #7R with White Output Shaft
- Output shaft color: Crisp White
- Sleek, neutral tone blends subtly with most ride-on car and truck chassis

- Unbolt the old #7 gearbox motor and carefully disconnect its wiring harness.
- Install the new #7R motor, secure it with existing hardware, and reconnect the wiring.
