The Yokomo YOKD170BL springs are designed for standard drift shock setups on 1/10 scale cars and use a soft blue 1.1 x 10.5 turns profile to influence slide and steering characteristics. Supplied as two springs, they are aimed at tuners seeking controllable slip and predictable cornering behaviour.
Fitting is simple: position each spring over the shock shaft or within the spring cup as per your shock manufacturer's guidance, secure with the appropriate preload collars, and confirm full travel without interference. Double-check the seating and shaft alignment to ensure reliable operation.
Performance note: the softer rating promotes smoother drift transitions and reduces sudden snap-back, making it easier to manage angle changes. Tweak preload modestly and test with different tyre compounds to achieve the desired front-to-rear balance.
