The steel rear suspension mount (RF) is an RC-scale replacement specifically for YZ-2 2WD off‑road chassis. This steel option locates extra mass lower in the chassis than many aluminium alternatives, subtly changing rear traction and the handling balance while leaving suspension geometry unchanged.
Installing the part follows standard YZ-2 rear-end service steps: remove the factory rear mount, move any spacers or bushings across, and secure the steel RF mount with the chassis' original mounting hardware. After the first runs, recheck threads and torque to ensure fasteners remain secure.
Used as a tuning element, the heavier steel mount generally improves rear traction and provides a planted feel through slow-speed sections and looser surfaces; adjust springs and dampers alongside the mount to fine-tune on-track behavior.
