Improve Rear-End Precision with the Yokomo MS-018

The Yokomo MS-018 Graphite Rear Shock Tower is intended to reduce rear compliance on the MS1.0 chassis, yielding steadier handling at speed. Manufactured from durable graphite, it keeps weight down while reinforcing shock mounts for improved repeatability during race weekends. It matches the MSR-010 and MSR-010A mounting arrangements for trouble-free fitting.

How Graphite Affects Rear Behaviour

Graphite offers a rigid mounting surface that helps the suspension react more predictably under load. The result is reduced chassis movement and a cleaner rear response, which many drivers find useful when refining setup for different tracks.

Mounting Compatibility and Advice

The MS-018 is designed to use existing MS1.0 mount points so installation is typically quick and does not require modification. Ensure screws are torqued to spec and check alignment after fitting to preserve handling characteristics.
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.

Will this tower change my rear toe or camber settings?

The MS-018 itself does not alter geometry if fitted correctly, but the reduced flex may reveal existing toe or camber issues, so double check alignment after installation.

Is graphite prone to cracking in crashes?

Graphite is strong but can chip on heavy impacts. Inspect the tower after incidents and replace if you spot significant damage to avoid unpredictable handling.

What is the best way to test the new tower on track?

Run a controlled session and compare lap consistency and corner entry. If the rear feels too sharp, adjust rear damping or soften spring rates to balance the stiffer mounting.
