Keep OPTIMA steering crisp and true

The Kyosho OT234 tie-rod is a replacement steering link tailored to the OPTIMA 1/10 platform, aimed at reducing play in the steering assembly. It fits directly into the OPTIMA steering layout to preserve factory geometry and predictable steering feel.

Specifically for the OPTIMA chassis

This tie-rod matches OPTIMA mounting points and lengths to avoid geometry changes that could upset handling. Precision machining helps maintain alignment under load and during cornering.

Installation advice for hobbyists

Swap the OT234 using common hand tools and recheck the steering endpoints and toe settings after fitting. Use small adjustments to fine tune steering centre and feel for different track surfaces.
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.

Can I use the OT234 on older OPTIMA variants?

In many cases the OT234 will fit older OPTIMA variants but confirm thread sizes and link lengths first to avoid unexpected steering changes.

Do I need special tools to fit this tie-rod?

No special tools are required; basic pliers and hex drivers are sufficient. Handle ball ends carefully to avoid damaging the socket during installation.

What should I check after fitting the tie-rod?

After fitting, inspect steering freeplay, set neutral steering, and perform a short test run to confirm there is no binding or odd handling.
