The JR-OT08 is an aluminium front upper pivot designed specifically for Kyosho Optima 2016 uprights and serves as the top connection point on the front suspension upright. It is a single-piece aluminium replacement intended to give a firmer mounting point than standard plastic pivots.
This part targets Kyosho Optima 2016 compatibility. Treat it as a spare or upgrade component for refreshing front suspension assemblies on the stated chassis and double-check fit dimensions before assuming cross-model compatibility.
Installation guidance: remove the wheel and any connected steering links, separate the upright from the suspension arm and existing pivot, swap in the JR-OT08 aluminium pivot, then reassemble and confirm correct steering alignment and suspension movement. Sellers should be consulted for included hardware details, as no torque figures or screw lists are provided here.
Tuning impact: fitting an aluminium JR-OT08 pivot helps reduce wear at the pivot interface and maintain alignment under heavier loads, yielding steadier steering feedback and more predictable suspension response for club driving and practice sessions.
