Yokomo YOKYS1280 - Pink HSS Long Shock Spring  [YOKYS1280]

RC long shock spring details

The Yokomo YOKYS1280 HSS long shock spring comes in a pink finish and is intended as a drop-in option to change the characteristics of long-travel shock units on scale models. Its HSS designation identifies the spring's specification for setup work.

To fit, follow normal shock service steps: remove the shock from the model if helpful, open the top cap if necessary, place the spring over the shaft onto the damper body and retainer, then rebuild and confirm travel and clearance. Verify the spring matches your shock travel to prevent binding at full compression.

In tuning practice, a long spring like this adjusts initial ride height, response and mid-stroke support. Use it alongside different spacers and preload settings to fine-tune balance for your driving conditions.
