Upgrade Path with the Yokomo Y2-008FUIA

The Yokomo Y2-008FUIA Aluminum Front Upper I Arm is aimed at YD-2 tuners seeking refined steering feedback and consistent geometry changes. Its aluminium construction gives a firmer mounting point for the front suspension without excess mass.

Expanded Caster Adjustment Range

This arm supports a 7mm caster adjustment window, allowing tuners to explore smaller caster angles and tune steering sharpness and self-centering behavior to match driving style and track conditions.

Engineered for Strength and Low Weight

Smart machining keeps the part light while improving stiffness where needed. The outcome is a more responsive front end that holds alignment better under heavy cornering.

Fitment and Best Practices

For correct installation swap the stock parts for this aluminium arm and fit the D-155 series upper I arm rod end adapter. After assembly, recheck link lengths and steering freeplay to ensure repeatable handling.
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 work with aftermarket steering knuckles?

It can, provided the knuckles maintain stock mounting dimensions. Confirm pin spacing and ball seat compatibility before fitting.

Should I change my shock setup after fitting this arm?

Not necessarily, but after altering caster you may want to fine tune spring rates or damping to rebalance front grip and roll characteristics.

How often should I inspect the aluminium arm?

Inspect during regular maintenance intervals and after heavy impacts; check for loose screws and worn rod ends to keep geometry consistent.

Does aluminium change the feel compared to resin?

Yes, aluminium reduces compliance seen in resin parts so steering feedback is sharper and less vague, especially under load.

Any tips for fine tuning caster with this arm?

Make changes in small steps, log lap times or steering response, and adjust toe or camber afterwards to retain tyre contact patch and handling balance.
