Strength Upgrade for ULTIMA RB5 Chassis

For pilots wanting a more robust drivetrain on their ULTIMA RB5, the Kyosho UM569 Steel Axle Shaft set delivers a noticeable step up in toughness. These axles are built to withstand repeated impacts and heavy use, extending the lifespan of your running gear. Their solid steel construction offers dependable wear resistance over time.

Engineered for Tough Conditions

The UM569 shafts are designed to cope with the knocks and shocks of off-road driving. Steel construction maintains shape under load and reduces the chance of deformation during hard landings or rough circuits.

Specifically Matched to RB5 Geometry

These axles are produced to fit the ULTIMA RB5 series with minimal fuss. Proper fitment preserves suspension geometry and helps keep wheel alignment consistent, which is important for lap-to-lap performance.
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.

Will the UM569 work with RB5 hop-ups like aluminium carriers?

Yes, these shafts are compatible with common RB5 upgrade parts, but always check clearances after fitting aluminium carriers or different suspension links to ensure no binding.

Are there torque or gear changes to consider when switching to steel axles?

Steel axles increase drivetrain stiffness and can place more stress on gears under high torque. Inspect pinion, spur and diff gears and correct mesh to avoid premature wear.

How should I check for wear on these axles?

Look for scoring, flat spots or bends and check splines for rounding. Replace if you see significant damage and keep bearings clean to reduce wear.

Do these axles affect ride height or wheel alignment?

They are made to original dimensions so ride height and alignment should remain unchanged when fitted correctly. Always recheck setup after any axle replacement.
