Tuning-Focused Front Shock Tower for YZ-2T

The Yokomo Z2-017TA is an RC-scale graphite front shock tower intended for the YZ-2T 2WD racing truck platform. Built from graphite, it shifts front-end stiffness to help drivers tune transient roll and steering feel without adding unnecessary weight. The product is sold as a single front tower and is identified by model Z2-017TA.

The component fits the front shock mounting area and upper bulkhead of compatible B-YZ2T chassis builds. As a direct-replacement it preserves factory mounting geometry so existing YZ-2T shock assemblies and hardware will align correctly when installed.

When using this tower to tune handling, change only one variable at a time: install the Z2-017TA, evaluate corner entry and mid-corner behaviour, then adjust springs or damper settings to refine balance. Track tests will reveal how the graphite tower interacts with your existing setup.

Specifications

  • Item: Graphite front shock tower
  • Material: Graphite
  • Model Number: Z2-017TA
  • Compatibility: B-YZ2T chassis (YZ-2T)

Compatibility

  • B-YZ2T

Use the Z2-017TA as part of a systematic tuning plan to observe front-end stiffness effects on lap time and steering response for YZ-2T based B-YZ2T setups.
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 will this tower change handling during corner entry?

Graphite increases front stiffness, which can sharpen turn-in and reduce initial roll. Expect quicker steering response but you may need to soften springs or increase front rebound to avoid snap oversteer.

Should I change shock oil after fitting the Z2-017TA?

Not always, but adjusting oil weight and damping can complement the tower's increased rigidity. Run baseline tests first, then fine tune oil viscosity if handling changes require it.

Is one tower enough to notice a difference?

Yes, swapping a single front tower to graphite can produce noticeable changes in transient behaviour; track testing will reveal the magnitude of the effect for your setup.

What is the official part code again?

The component is listed as Yokomo Z2-017TA and is described as a graphite front shock tower for the YZ-2T platform.
