Front suspension pivot summary

This JR-OT08 aluminum front upper pivot is a machined replacement intended for Kyosho Optima 2016 front suspension uprights. It fits the top of the upright to provide a stronger pivot point compared with stock plastic units and is supplied as a single pivot component.

Compatibility is listed specifically for Kyosho Optima 2016; confirm dimensions against your existing upright before purchase to ensure fitment. The item is presented as an aluminum spare or hop-up part for routine maintenance or light performance upgrades on the stated chassis.

Installation notes: remove the front wheel and steering linkages as needed, separate the upright from the suspension arm and old pivot, install the JR-OT08 aluminum pivot, then reassemble and check steering geometry and free suspension travel. No torque specs or parts list are provided here, so verify the seller listing for included screws or any required fasteners.

Tuning role: swapping a worn plastic pivot for an aluminum JR-OT08 can reduce pivot wear and help maintain alignment under load, improving steering consistency and predictable suspension behaviour during practice or club racing. This description is intended for radio-controlled model use only.

Fits perfect and looks nice, but one has some different engraving on it while the other is smooth.
