Hard-anodized steering upgrade for RD/SD/MD drift cars

This is an aluminum front steering block produced as an upgrade for Yokomo RD/SD/MD series drift cars. The design separates axle shaft, steering block, and upper holder into discrete pieces so measured adjustments are possible without swapping a single-piece assembly.

Stacked shims can be used to modify trail and kingpin angle, letting you fine-tune geometry for varying track surfaces. The hard-anodized aluminum construction increases front-end stiffness over resin axles, resulting in sharper steering feedback and more distinct front tyre tracing during drifts.

Use of this part is targeted at hobby RC drift circuits and it is especially beneficial on tight, precision-demanding surfaces like P tiles and coloured concrete.

Experiment with the separated axle, steering block, and upper holder and iterate shim stacks to lock in a consistent alignment for your circuit. The aluminum option tends to sharpen steering feel compared with standard resin parts.
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 durable is the hard-anodized finish under regular use?

The hard-anodized surface resists light abrasion and holds up well to normal hobby use. Heavy impacts or improper fitment can still damage the finish, so inspect parts after hard knocks.

Does the aluminum block change chassis flex characteristics?

Yes, the aluminum increases front-end rigidity versus resin, which alters how the chassis transmits steering inputs. Expect crisper response and less compliance at the front end.

What maintenance does the RD-415SAP require?

Regularly check shim stacks, fastener torque, and bearing fit. Clean and inspect the anodized surfaces and hardware after running sessions to prevent loosening or corrosion of mating parts.

How should I adjust shims for different track conditions?

For grippier or rough tracks, increase trail slightly with additional shims to stabilise entry. For smoother or slick surfaces, reduce shims for quicker turn-in. Make incremental changes and re-test.

Will this upgrade affect front tyre tracing consistency?

Yes, the increased rigidity and shim tuning options help produce more consistent tyre tracing, particularly on precision surfaces where alignment matters.
