This aluminium front bumper absorber is supplied as a 1 pcs set for Axial Yeti platforms and is intended to sit at the front bumper attachment points to accept and spread low-speed impact energy.
Compared with standard plastic bump stops, the metal contact face gives a more rigid interface that alters how energy transmits into the chassis and front suspension. During installation confirm the part aligns with the bumper mounts and reuse stock fasteners when appropriate, ensuring the face is seated before final tightening.
Consider the absorber as a bump-stop and crash-contact piece, not a suspension tuning item; changing this part affects the front-end response on small hits and may require minor adjustments to shock preload or ride height to maintain the handling you prefer.
Fit this absorber when you want a durable metal front contact for your Yeti, double-check mount alignment and remember it changes impact behaviour relative to stock plastic parts.
