Refine front-end response with a graphite insert

This graphite plate locates at the lower section of the front shock tower to boost tower stiffness yet retain bulkhead compliance. Increasing stiffness locally helps shocks move with steadier cadence and improves repeatability when cornering or braking.

Tuning application: use this plate to achieve a snappier front-end reaction and clearer feedback during tuning sessions. It is intended as a specific adjustment to the tower area rather than a wholesale chassis alteration.

Mounting notes: the plate secures using the existing lower tower mounting points, preserving the intended flex of the bulkhead. Confirm clearance around the shock bodies and surrounding components on MSR towers before final tightening.

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.

When should I fit this to improve turn-in?

Fit the plate when you want sharper initial response from the front, especially on smooth tracks where consistent shock action aids turn-in precision.

Will this change my overall balance?

Yes, concentrating stiffness at the front tower can shift front-end feel. Use it alongside small adjustments to springs, damping, or roll centres to rebalance the chassis.

Any setup tips when using the plate?

Test incremental changes: try one adjustment at a time and log lap times or driver feedback to assess the plate's effect before stacking other setup changes.
