Technical note on SAK-U122D-V2 shaft cushioning

The 3Racing Sakura Advance 4mm Universal Shaft Cushion (SAK-U122D-V2) is engineered to mitigate wear points on the universal shaft assembly and maintain consistent driveline feedback. As a direct service item for the Sakura Advance series, it supports repeatable performance by reducing abrasive contact that can alter shaft dynamics. Use it as part of a scheduled parts refresh to keep lap times consistent and reduce mid-session component swaps.

How does the cushion influence shaft wear rates?

The cushion reduces direct metal contact and distributes load around the shaft interface, which can lower localized wear. Regular inspection is advised to monitor material compression over time.

Any setup tips when fitting this part?

Ensure the shaft runs free with correct endplay and alignment after fitting. Check for binding at full suspension travel and verify drivetrain angle to avoid introducing additional stress.

Will this work with aftermarket universal kits?

Compatibility depends on shaft diameter and interface design. The SAK-U122D-V2 targets the Sakura Advance architecture; confirm dimensions before combining with third-party universals.

Maintenance recommendations between events?

Inspect the cushion for deformation and replace as part of periodic maintenance when running frequent events. Keeping bearings and joints clean will also reduce load on the cushion.
