Modelers seeking crisper control for the YD-2 will value the Yokomo Y2-S144A piston set. Designed for the YD-2 SLF Big Bore Shock, the pistons incorporate 1.4mm orifices to promote smoother damper travel and better tyre engagement when grip is poor.
These 1.4mm holes ease fluid flow and reduce abrupt damping changes, helping the chassis settle more predictably during cornering and providing steadier traction for slide control.
While light shock oils remain popular for drifting, the increased orifice size makes it viable to explore oils in the #200 to #300 range to tune mid-speed damping and overall balance.
In addition to performance, the Yokomo Y2-S144A pistons help limit rapid moisture ingress, protecting silicone oil and seals so that shocks hold consistent damping between services.
