It is the bulkhead cap/upper link mount that sits on top of the front spool and the shock tower mounts to it. It has 1FL/1FR marked on it.

I think it is a BD-302

BD-302FR1
BD-302FL1

this is the setup i run which have high speed and low speed steering

shock fr /rr oil - 500
ff 44.2mm toe block
fr 43.5mm toe block with 0.5mm shim underneath
inner camberlink 4mm, outer 0.5mm
ackerman 0mm

rf 2.0mm toe block
rr 45.7mm toe block with 0.5mm shim underneath
inner camber 4mm, outer 0mm
droop fr - 5
droop rr - 4

fr spring - Ride green
rr spring - hpi silver

Front sway bar - 1.4
rear sway bar - 1.2
lowerdeck - 2.3mm w/o hole, 2.5mm upperdeck

maybe this setup alittle weird but it work good for me...lol

hahah yes that even sounds strange to me...but maybe worth a try.

i was also thinking since most of the other yokomo drivers dont complain about understeer that much, that maybe it has to do with the body position. so i will check this at the next ETS race.

i should get more steering if i mount the body more forward right? dont wanna move only the wing a bit forward, cause this would take away too much rear grip. and the rear is a bit loose already.

oh ya, i did move my shell 4mm forward...

vitomon

4mm forward compared to what? whats the standard position you use for bodyshell. any way of measuring this?

kschu

iTrader: (16)

from the front wheel arch line...

vitomon

do you mind measuring the distance from your front bumper to the body.

that i can also measure easily. this would be great help.

i have attachted a picture of what i mean

rai

Almost similar to mine running except that mine uses 500 shock oil f & r and thinner gear diff oil at about 1K. Mine have no problem of understeer. Mine you that our track here runs on low to medium grip.

Have just seen that Yokomo is going to sell double joint shaft for rear

Some drivers ran it at the last ETS in Apeldoorn, like Hayato and Tam's Boys. But I can't imagine what they are supposed to give to the car? Ok, for the front, it decreases vibrations due to steering, but in the rear... Does anyone get an idea of what they bring for the car's behaviour?

Thanks for answering,

Part no: #BD-010RW (YOKOMO DOUBLE JOINT UNIVERSAL SHAFT FOR BD5 REAR)

RC MARKET

released !!

If the rear suspention moves, also there can be some binding due the shafts. Should be better with the double!
Smoother shaft movement under suspention movement!

Thanks for your answer...

I've to admit that it makes me a bit doubtful about their real utility... I thought original CVD's shafts were ample

Does someone already try this? (I know they're very recent, but )

Hi guys
I'm new to the Yokomo brand. Just a quick question.
I noticed on the setup sheets that for low traction tracks you raise the RC by adding spacers to the camber link and lower the RC on high traction tracks.... So this correct? I thought its the other way around??

Thanks
