Precision Steering Upgrade for OPTIMA Mid

The Kyosho OTW143 Aluminum HD Steering Link Set is a practical upgrade for OPTIMA Mid owners aiming to tighten steering response. This kit swaps the factory nylon parts for a machined aluminium link and includes two flanged bearings to produce a more direct, predictable feel.

Stiffer, More Accurate Steering

Constructed from durable aluminium, the steering link reduces play and unwanted flex so your inputs translate more reliably at the wheels. The flanged bearings lower friction and wear, helping preserve consistent steering performance across long practice runs.

Designed for Racing and Regular Driving

Whether you are competing or running at the track with friends, the Kyosho OTW143 delivers a firmer steering feedback that benefits both competitive drivers and weekend hobbyists. Installation is straightforward and yields a noticeably cleaner, more linear steering character on the OPTIMA Mid chassis.
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.

What advantage does an aluminium link give over the stock nylon part?

Aluminium resists flex under load, so steering inputs are transferred more directly. That firmness improves precision and reduces the vague feel you can get with worn or soft nylon links.

Will the Kyosho OTW143 fit other Kyosho models?

This set is built for the OPTIMA Mid chassis. It may fit other models with the same steering geometry, but you should compare mounting points and measurements before fitting it to a different car.

How should I service the flanged bearings?

Keep the bearings free of grit and apply a light bearing oil or grease occasionally. Replace them if you notice play or rough rotation to maintain crisp steering response.
