This optional main shaft, listed as Yokomo Z4-644H, is made from aluminium and treated with a hard anodized finish to cut weight while improving surface wear resistance. It is supplied for drivetrain use on YZ-4 cars.
In service the shaft lowers rotating mass on the gearbox axis and can produce sharper throttle response during tuning. Effects are modest and intended for setup refinement rather than structural driveline redesign.
Fitment guidance: replacing the stock main shaft requires basic gearbox teardown to access the shaft and bearings. After installation, verify bearing alignment, clearances and secure seating before operation. The source does not indicate required special tools or permanent chassis changes.
