12-degree aluminium lower caster upgrade

The Yokomo YOKIB41312 aluminium lower caster block fits DRB and DIB chassis as a purpose-built 12° lower caster unit, machined from aluminium and finished in blue anodise. It alters lower pivot stiffness and steering roll centre attributes, allowing targeted changes to front-end behaviour on 1/10 scale touring cars without replacing other steering components.

Installation is aimed at seasoned modellers: remove the current hub carrier or steering knuckle assembly, swap in the aluminium block, and secure using the existing mounting points. Typical workshop hex tools and a stable setup stand are sufficient; always re-check alignment and secure thread engagement before track sessions.

From a tuning perspective the aluminium block resists deformation better than softer materials, yielding steadier suspension reactions under load. The fixed 12° geometry is useful when seeking predictable caster feedback on tracks with medium to high grip, and the blue finish speeds visual inspection during setup changes.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Does this fit both DRB and DIB without adapters?

Yes, it is manufactured to match the factory lower caster mounting points on both DRB and DIB chassis, so no additional adapters are normally required.

Will I need to alter ride height or camber after fitting?

You should check ride height and camber after installation since the change in pivot stiffness and roll centre can affect cornering balance; small shock or camber link adjustments often restore preferred handling.

Is this part intended for competition use?

Yes. Its machined aluminium construction and precise 12° geometry make it suitable for competitive setups where consistent steering feedback is important.

Any special care to preserve the anodise?

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods; rinse off dirt and use a soft brush or cloth. The anodised layer is durable but benefits from gentle maintenance to keep the finish and part identification clear.
