Yokomo YOKSD415S12 - 12 Degree Offset Aluminum Front Steering Block (King Pin) for Drift  [YOKSD415S12]

Front steering block overview

The Yokomo YOKSD415S12 is a purpose-built aluminium front steering block for RC drift cars that utilise a king pin style steering assembly. Its fixed 12 degree offset repositions the steering pivot in relation to the hub to allow greater steering angle and more repeatable steering behaviour during drift manoeuvres.

Intended as a direct replacement where chassis accept king pin mounting plates and steering block dimensions consistent with Yokomo drift packages, check your chassis' mounting hole spacing, king pin diameter and bearing seat clearances before fitting to ensure compatibility.

Installation notes: remove the original steering block, inspect the king pin and bearing seats for wear, mount the replacement block oriented correctly for the 12 degree offset, secure fasteners using the appropriate hex driver and follow torque specifications from your chassis supplier, then verify hub rotation and steering linkage clearance.

Tuning role: fitting a 12 degree offset steering block changes the pivot geometry so you can refine steering response and achievable lock. Alter toe settings and steering link lengths in measured steps and evaluate changes on track to find the best setup.

For tuners altering front pivot geometry for drift performance, the YOKSD415S12 provides a reliable aluminium option with a clear 12 degree king pin offset; always confirm fit and adapt linkages to suit your chassis.
