Spring for fine tuning pitching response

This Yokomo YOKYX-40SG shock spring is an R/C-scale replacement piece intended for pitching damp applications on radio-controlled models. The gold finish identifies the spring and it is intended for use where a dedicated pitching damper spring is required to refine suspension response.

The spring serves as a direct replacement for standard shock springs in pitching damper assemblies and is used to adjust pitching response and front-to-rear weight transfer. When testing setup changes, alter spring rate incrementally and compare lap times or handling feel to dial in the correct stiffness.

Prior to use, inspect free length and straightness, confirm clean seating on shock cups and retainers, and ensure the spring does not bind on the shock shaft through full travel. These routines support repeatable handling during practice.

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.

How should I evaluate this spring when tuning?

Make one-step changes to spring choice or preload and run consistent test laps to observe differences in pitching and transient response before committing to further changes.

Will changing this spring alter car balance?

Yes, switching to a firmer or softer pitching spring will influence front-to-rear weight transfer; combine spring changes with damper adjustments to retain overall balance.

What quick checks should I do before track runs?

Verify that the spring seats correctly, that preload settings are consistent, and that the shock cycles through full travel without binding before each session.
