Precision Link Upgrade for the YZ-870C

Owners of the YZ-870C Super Dog Fighter can fit the Yokomo YZ-TBS87 Titanium Turnbuckle Set to replace standard link hardware with corrosion-resistant, lighter titanium pieces. The pack comprises six turnbuckles: four at 36mm for upper arms and tie rods and two at 30mm intended for the servo rod, keeping the original geometry intact.

Advantages of titanium linkages

Titanium offers strength with reduced mass versus conventional steel parts, improving steering sharpness and lowering unsprung weight. Its resistance to fatigue helps keep alignment stable through extended use and repeated impacts.

Made to match classic chassis points

The YZ-TBS87 is produced to suit YZ-870C mounting patterns for a straightforward swap. Whether restoring a period machine or updating a race car, these turnbuckles deliver reliable, fine-adjustable link control.
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.

Are these suitable for high level competition?

They are engineered for durability and consistent adjustment, which makes them appropriate for regular club racing and vintage competition where correct link lengths are required.

Will I need special tools to fit them?

Fitting normally requires basic turnbuckle and spanner tools; avoid over-tightening and use the correct sized wrench to protect the titanium threads.

How do I check thread wear?

Inspect threads visually for galling and ensure smooth adjustment; if you notice rough movement or damage, replace the affected turnbuckle to keep settings secure.

Can these be used on the front and rear links?

The set provides specific lengths for upper arms, tie rods and servo linkage on the YZ-870C; confirm which link positions you wish to upgrade and install the correct length pieces accordingly.
