Rugged Steering Upgrade for OPTIMA Mid

The Kyosho OTW143 Aluminum HD Steering Link Set is designed to replace the original nylon linkage on the OPTIMA Mid with a tougher aluminium part. Paired with two flanged bearings, this kit aims to reduce flex and deliver steadier steering under load.

Stronger Link, Cleaner Steering Response

Built from robust aluminium, the OTW143 link resists bending and keeps steering inputs true, which is useful when you are pushing the car on rough surfaces. Flanged bearings lower friction at the pivot points, helping the steering remain consistent during extended runs.

Great for Bashing and Track Days

Whether you are bashing in the park or testing times at the track, the Kyosho OTW143 gives a firmer steering platform that helps drivers feel more connected to the front end. The swap is straightforward and improves the overall steering linearity of the OPTIMA Mid.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Does the OTW143 change steering geometry?

The OTW143 is a like-for-like replacement that keeps steering geometry intact. It stiffens the linkage rather than altering angles, so your existing toe and ackermann settings remain usable.

How durable are the included flanged bearings?

The flanged bearings are intended to lower lateral movement and friction. With regular cleaning and light lubrication they perform well for typical bashing and track use, though sealed upgrades are an option for heavy duty use.

Will I need different screws or hardware?

Most installations use the factory hardware. Check that the screws and mounting points are secure and that the bearings sit flush, then run through steering endpoints to ensure no binding occurs.
