This rear body mount plate is an RC-scale replacement component intended for the Yokomo GT500 family of chassis. Manufactured from carbon graphite, it aims to reduce mass while preserving rigidity at the rear body mounting points. The plate is intended to ensure repeatable body alignment and mounting geometry rather than to alter suspension or drivetrain performance directly.
Fitting the plate is simple for users familiar with GT500 body posts: remove the original rear mount, transfer any existing posts or fasteners, and attach the YOKGT-05G to the factory rear boss locations. Keep to the stock screw pattern to maintain original bodyline and clearance, and confirm correct thread engagement while avoiding excessive torque on composite parts.
From a setup viewpoint, the plate should be treated as a body-fit and aero-related tool. Variations in stiffness can affect how the rear body meets airflow and how it behaves over the contact patch, so use the component as part of your body fitting and aerodynamic adjustments rather than a direct suspension modification.
The YOKGT-05G provides GT500 chassis owners with a low-mass, stiff rear body mount option that focuses on repeatable fitment and minimal added weight.
