Rear Shafts for Optima/Ultima - Will Re Re Parts Fit?

I just replaced the rear shafts in my Raider with a set a buddy gave me and my Ultima's are almost as toasted and need to be replaced too. It looks like OT-18 is the correct vintage rear shaft but I was wondering if there is a Re Re part that will fit/a cheaper option? They OT-18s are not crazy expensive but I wanted to see what my options were and I was struggling to find ans answer.

Thanks!

I am sorry, can you please post a link? I can't seem to find one that would fit Kyosho cars. These RC Mart CV shafts are a direct fit for the Ultima/Optima?

Thanks!

They sell for about $19
I use them in my new and old Ultimas, My Rampage GP10 , and my Optima.
