Built for Yokomo R12/GT series touring car shocks, this spring cup holds the coil spring on the shaft and delivers a defined contact point for preload and travel adjustments. The part is for precise positioning and complements established shock servicing and tuning routines.
Fitting procedure: remove the shock cap and any threaded collar as required, position the cup on the seating surface of the shock shaft, then reassemble while ensuring the spring seats evenly. Use standard small hand tools and confirm there is no excess play after tightening. No specialised press is normally necessary for compatible shock bodies.
Practical advice: altering cup height will change effective spring preload and where travel begins, influencing ride height and initial suspension response. Make measured adjustments and test the car to evaluate handling. Regular inspection for damage or deformation maintains consistent spring seating and repeatable setups.
