Rugged Front Pivot Built for Repeat Runs

The JAZRIDER JR-OT08 Aluminum Front Upper Pivot swaps in for the stock item on the Kyosho Optima 2016 to deliver a tougher connection at the front suspension. Constructed from robust aluminium, this part reduces wear on pivot points and holds alignment during aggressive driving.

More Predictable Steering Under Load

The stiffer aluminium pivot lessens unwanted movement, so steering input translates more directly to tyre action. This is useful when tackling loose dirt, grass or rough surfaces where consistency counts.

Easy to Fit, Minimal Adjustment Needed

Specifically made for the Kyosho Optima 2016, the JR-OT08 installs using the original fixings. No special tools or chassis mods are required, which keeps the swap quick and reversible.

Fits perfect and looks nice, but one has some different engraving on it while the other is smooth.

As listed fast service would deal with again

Do I need to replace other parts at the same time?

It is sensible to inspect adjoining components like steering blocks and linkages when fitting the JR-OT08, but replacement is not usually required unless wear is evident.

Is it worth upgrading for club racing?

Yes, the improved stability and repeatable handling help with consistent lap times and reduce the chance of crash damage from worn plastic pivots.

How should I torque the mounting screws?

Tighten to a firm setting without overloading the threads. Check them after the first run and again periodically to avoid loosening from vibration.
