Rear damper upgrade tuned to R12/GT geometry

The Yokomo YOKR12-37 X Rear Shock Set is an aftermarket rear damper kit intended for R12/GT chassis arrangements. This overview emphasises compatibility notes, tuning interactions, and practical considerations for fitting rather than presuming undocumented numbers.

Compatibility is specified for models marked R12/GT, and the part functions as a direct replacement or upgrade to refine rear suspension response. Installation normally involves replacing the stock rear dampers and using the existing rear tower and lower mount holes; confirm mount alignment and fastener compatibility prior to final installation.

Rear shock settings influence roll behavior, traction transfer, and rear compliance during cornering. Use the set to adjust damping characteristics and static ride height together with spring selection and anti-roll bar tuning. Make controlled, single-variable changes and test consistently to isolate effects.

Maintenance guidance: routinely inspect seals and shaft finishes, service with shock oils intended for 1/12 scale dampers, and swap worn seals or damaged shafts to preserve damping consistency. This item is designed for scale RC use only.

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 these shocks fit all R12/GT variants without modification?

They are intended for R12/GT-marked models, but slight differences in aftermarket chassis or conversion kits may require spacers or alternate mounting hardware to preserve geometry.

How do these affect corner entry and exit?

Stiffer damping can sharpen entry by reducing roll, while softer settings help maintain rear traction on exit. Balance with spring and bar changes to achieve the handling you prefer.

Are they serviceable for oil and seal changes?

If the design allows, serviceable internals let you change oil weight and seals, providing a broad tuning range. Follow recommended procedures and use appropriate oils for 1/12 shocks.

Should I change other components when fitting these shocks?

Consider matching spring rates and checking anti-roll bar settings to complement the damping characteristics; small coordinated changes yield clearer data when testing.
