FW05 Front Swing Shaft Precision Replacement FW05-007 by 3Racing  [FW05-007]

Technical overview of the FW05 front swing shaft

This front swing shaft is a straightforward replacement for Kyosho FW05-R, FW05RR and V One SIII platforms, carrying the FW05-007 part number. It is intended for routine maintenance and precise setup work on the front steering linkage.

The component provides the mechanical connection between steering inputs and front suspension movement, helping to control end-play and preserve repeatable steering behaviour. During installation, confirm correct orientation, torque pivot fasteners to spec, and check for unimpaired rotation and minimal lateral clearance before operation.

From a tuning perspective, the swing shaft is a baseline steering component. Replacing a bowed or worn shaft restores consistent steering geometry and improves predictability when adjusting tie-rods, camber links and roll-center settings, enabling more accurate setup iterations.
