GT500 rear body plate and setup role

This rear body mount plate is an RC-scale replacement part made for the Yokomo GT500 family of chassis. Fabricated from carbon graphite, it keeps weight low while offering the rigidity needed at the rear mounting area. Its intended use is to secure consistent body alignment and repeatable mounting geometry rather than to alter suspension geometry or drivetrain components.

To install, remove the original rear mount plate, transfer any existing posts or hardware, and bolt the YOKGT-05G into the factory rear boss positions. Use the stock screw holes to preserve the original bodyline and ground clearance; always check thread engagement and avoid over-torquing when fastening into composite parts.

As a setup component, this plate can influence the rear body's interaction with airflow and the tires by changing rigidity. Consider small stiffness differences as part of aerodynamic trimming and body fitment rather than a direct changes to handling via suspension or motor tuning.

Specifications

  • Item: Rear body mount plate
  • Material: Carbon graphite
  • Model Number: YOKGT-05G
  • Compatibility: GT500 series

For GT500 owners focused on dialling in body fit and cutting weight, the YOKGT-05G is a direct-fit carbon graphite plate that emphasizes consistent alignment and reduced mass.

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.
Yes, altering rear body stiffness can change how airflow interacts with the rear section and can subtly shift aero balance. Use the plate as one variable when fine-tuning body trim.
Most likely no major suspension changes are required, but you may want to re-evaluate rear roll characteristics and ride height after changing body stiffness and clearance.
Indirectly. A stiffer rear body mount can change load distribution on the rear body during dynamic conditions, which may slightly affect tyre contact patterns and feel.
After fitting, run a few test laps focusing on rear stability and aero response, then tweak body trim and minor suspension settings if needed to regain balance.
