This component is a front suspension spring for off-road RC use, identified by Yokomo as model YOKRP-083O. The orange-coated spring is designed to provide a change in the front spring rate when fitted to suitable off-road front suspension setups.
Fitment and compatibility are determined by the shock assembly and spring seat geometry on your vehicle. Check the spring free length and coil inner diameter against your existing front springs to confirm a secure fit on the shock shaft and in the spring retainer. This item is a spring only and not a complete shock unit.
Installation steps for those comfortable with shock maintenance: remove the shock from the model, open the shock cap to access the spring, install the new spring and reassemble, ensuring correct seating and unobstructed shaft movement. Maintain equal preload both sides to keep handling balanced.
Tuning impact: swapping front springs changes ride height, initial compliance, and compression rate of the front end, influencing turn-in and weight transfer. Use spring swaps along with adjustments to shock oil and piston selection to refine the car's balance for off-road circuits.
