It is one of the highest-precision parts on the car, because the O-rings ride directly on its surface, and any nick, scratch or bend destroys the seal immediately. A damaged shaft is the single most common reason a shock keeps leaking no matter how many times it is rebuilt, and it is worth rolling any shaft you plan to reuse across a flat surface to check it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShafts bend in the crashes that load the suspension sideways rather than vertically, and even a slight bend makes the shaft bind in the seals. That shows up as a shock that does not extend smoothly under its own spring pressure, which means the suspension is not following the ground properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength is the only thing distinguishing this from its siblings, so check before ordering: 53mm is the front shaft, and the rear position takes a longer one under a different part number. Kyosho lists fitment across the Inferno MP9, MP9e, MP10, MP10e, MP-7.5 and MP777.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PowerHobby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44532831191128,"sku":"KYOIFW140-02","price":8.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/0554\/8376\/files\/kyoifw140-02_e26e5675-221d-456b-88a6-f41a93768620.jpg?v=1786242405","url":"https:\/\/beavertonmilestonehobby.com\/products\/kyosho-ifw140-02-53mm-front-shock-shaft-2pcs","provider":"Beaverton Milestone Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
