Improve YD-2 Drift Control with Lighter Gears

The Yokomo Y2-503GPA plastic bevel gear set provides a lightweight replacement for YD-2 drivers seeking finer control. Molded resin reduces rotating mass compared with metal bevels, lowering gyroscopic resistance for smoother transitions and steadier slides on drift circuits.

Comparing Plastic and Metal Bevels

Metal gears bring durability but add inertia that can blunt steering response. Plastic gears offer greater agility and reduced spin inertia, though they can show wear faster under high loads. Choose based on your motor power and driving conditions.

Installation and Compatibility Details

Made specifically for the YD-2 platform, the Y2-503GPA fits as a direct replacement. Ensure correct gear mesh, inspect bearings, and perform a bench run to confirm quiet, smooth engagement before track use.
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.

Is this gear set suitable for club level drifting?

Yes, for most club drifting the Y2-503GPA gives improved feel and reduced gyro. If you run very high power, inspect gears more frequently to manage wear.

How often should I check the bevel gears?

Check teeth and bore fit every few sessions or after hard impacts. Replace the set if you notice chipping, deformation or excess play.

Will reducing rotating mass help on low grip surfaces?

Yes, lowering gyro effect can make initiation and counter-steer easier on low-traction surfaces, giving you more controllable drift entries.
