Titanium rear lower suspension pin
This titanium rear lower suspension pin is a scale RC replacement part designed for KYOSHO V One RRR family cars. It serves as the rear lower pivot pin in the suspension system, replacing the stock steel/plastic pin to reduce wear at the pivot point while keeping weight low. The article focuses on compatibility, installation considerations, and how this pin affects chassis feel during tuning.
Compatibility is preserved directly from the product title: intended for KYOSHO V One RRR, V One SIII, and V One RRR Evo 64 chassis. Use this pin where the factory part is listed as the rear lower suspension pivot; do not substitute on different pivot designs without confirming fitment.
Installation notes: remove the rear lower link and old pivot pin following your chassis service routine, inspect link bore and bushings for wear, then fit the titanium pin in place using the same retaining hardware from the original assembly. Because titanium has different surface friction than steel, check for proper clearance and securement during initial test runs to avoid binding or unexpected movement.
Tuning role: upgrading to a titanium pin is primarily about long-term durability and consistent pivot behavior. Expect reduced corrosion and slower wear at the lower link pivot, which helps maintain consistent rear roll center and alignment over time. This supports repeatable handling when adjusting shock settings or roll stiffness on track.
Maintenance tips: inspect for side play and signs of galling after the first few runs, verify retaining clips or set screws remain secure, and clean mating surfaces before reassembly. If you use threadlocker or anti-seize on adjacent fasteners, follow the product guidelines to avoid contamination of the pivot surface.
