This rear double-joint universal drive was produced by Yokomo for 1/10 scale touring cars and saw use in high-level competition around 2012. The added joint between the dogbone and axle evens out torque delivery as the suspension articulates, reducing abrupt torque spikes that can upset rear grip.
From a functional perspective, the double-joint CVD keeps driveline engagement steadier through travel and lowers lash at severe angles. The unit is designed with the axle inner side clearance in mind, so a thin-type inner bearing is necessary; use the included bearing or the BB-105T2 spare when a replacement is needed.
Routine checks during installation are essential: verify the inner bearing thickness, confirm the dogbone sits properly in the CVD cup, and spin the hub through the suspension range to ensure smooth operation prior to final torque. Drivers fitting this assembly seek a more predictable rear traction response during compression and rebound cycles.
Fit the BD-010RW to stabilise rear drivability across BD7/BD5 platforms and check that the thin inner axle bearing (included or BB-105T2) is correct for your hub spacing.
