Stiffen the Front End for Sharper Handling

The JAZRIDER JR-OT08 Aluminum Front Upper Pivot replaces the factory plastic pivot on the Kyosho Optima 2016, giving a stronger mounting point that resists wear. Machined from quality aluminum, this upgrade reduces component flex and extends service intervals for weekend club racers and casual trail drivers alike.

Better Steering Feedback and Predictable Cornering

Fitting the aluminum pivot helps tighten steering response and keeps the front geometry consistent under load. Reduced deformation means more repeatable lines and improved confidence when entering turns, whether youre running on parking-lot asphalt or compacted dirt.

Straightforward Fitment, No Mod Needed

Designed specifically for the Kyosho Optima 2016, the JAZRIDER JR-OT08 installs in place of the stock piece without cutting or drilling. The part aligns with standard hardware, so installation is fast and reversible for maintenance or upgrades.

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
Installation is simple with basic tools. The JR-OT08 bolts in using the existing mounting points and hardware, so no advanced fabrication is needed.
This pivot keeps the original geometry but reduces flex. Expect firmer steering and more consistent toe and camber under load, without needing major trim changes.
Check mounting screws for tightness after the first runs and inspect for wear on mating surfaces. A light coating of anti-seize on metal-to-metal contact will help prevent corrosion.
