Aluminum steering block for drifting

The Yokomo YOKSD415S12 is an aluminium front steering block sized for RC drift cars that use a king pin style steering assembly. Its fixed 12 degree offset repositions the pivot relative to the hub to enhance steering angle and deliver consistent steering behaviour tailored to drifting.

Designed as a direct swap for chassis accepting king pin mounting plates and dimensions that match Yokomo drift layouts, this block should be checked against your chassis mounting pattern, king pin size and linkage clearances before installation to confirm fit.

Installation notes: remove the old steering block, inspect king pin and bearing seats for wear, fit the new block oriented correctly for the 12 degree offset, secure fastenings with the right hex driver and adhere to any torque specs from your chassis maker, then check hub rotation and steering clearance.

Tuning role: by changing the steering pivot geometry, the 12 degree offset allows fine tuning of steering response and maximum angle. Make small adjustments to toe and steering link lengths and trial the car to dial in handling.

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.

Is the aluminium strong enough for aggressive drifting?

Aluminium alloy offers a good strength-to-weight balance for steering components, but repeated heavy impacts can deform bearing seats or threads. Inspect the block after hard hits and replace it if you find any distortion or cracking.

How do I verify the block will fit my chassis?

Measure your chassis' king pin diameter, mounting hole spacing and bearing seat positions, then compare these to the replacement block. If dimensions align, the block should mate correctly; if not, do not force fit.

What should I look for during installation checks?

Ensure bearing seats are clean and free of burrs, confirm king pin alignment, tighten fasteners to the recommended torque and verify the hub rotates freely without binding from the new block.

Any maintenance advice for long service life?

Keep the block and mating surfaces clean, inspect for wear after heavy sessions, replace corroded or rounded hardware, and re-torque mounting screws periodically to maintain a secure fit.
