Tune SLF Short Dampers with Yokomo YS-8DS

The Yokomo YS-8DS silicon diaphragm is designed to improve damping repeatability in SLF Short dampers. With careful manufacturing, this part helps keep shock behaviour consistent lap after lap, making it a sensible upgrade for tuners focused on steady handling and traction control.

Material Benefits and Fitment Notes

Produced from quality silicon, the YS-8DS offers a blend of flexibility and wear resistance that supports accurate shock action. It is compatible with a number of Yokomo chassis platforms, notably the MDR and SDR ranges, and suits users wanting a low-maintenance replacement for worn diaphragms.
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.

What chassis series work with this diaphragm?

The YS-8DS fits SLF Short damper setups found on various Yokomo builds, including entries from the MDR and SDR lines such as MDR-010 and SDR-020.

Can I mix this diaphragm with different shock oils?

Yes. The diaphragm works with standard shock oils; choose oil viscosity to suit your handling goals. The diaphragm itself does not require a specific oil grade to function correctly.

Is the YS-8DS suitable for older Yokomo cars?

It can suit older SLF Short damper applications provided the shock body and piston dimensions match. Confirm fitment with your shock model before fitting.

Any tips for installing the diaphragm?

Clean the shock internals, seat the diaphragm evenly on the piston, and avoid stretching. Reassemble carefully and bleed the shock to remove air for consistent performance.
