Tune Your OPTIMA with the Kyosho OT228B swing shaft

The Kyosho OT228B Swing Shaft is a serviceable replacement built for the OPTIMA line. Valued for dependable function, this swing shaft helps keep driveline operation smooth and predictable. By maintaining efficient power transfer from motor to wheels, it supports more consistent lap times and reduced drivetrain loss.

Fitment and drivetrain role

Made to mate directly with OPTIMA chassis components, the OT228B swing shaft fits without custom modification. It is a straightforward option for replacing worn parts or refreshing an older setup. The solid build also adds resilience so you can run longer between part changes.

Quick install and upkeep

Fitting the Kyosho OT228B swing shaft is simple with basic tools. Clean mating surfaces and check bearings for debris before assembly to avoid premature wear. Routine inspections and light lubrication at service intervals will extend the shaft life and keep driveline feel consistent.

The OT228B is engineered for the OPTIMA family. Other models may require modification or different mounting hardware to accept this shaft.
Inspect the shaft after a few running sessions or sooner if you drive on abrasive surfaces. Look for play, scoring, and smooth rotation to catch wear early.
Keep bearings clean, use appropriate light grease where specified, and avoid grit ingress. Replacing seals or bearings as they wear will protect the swing shaft from accelerated damage.
