The steel rear suspension mount (RF) is a direct replacement designed specifically for YZ-2 2WD off-road chassis. Compared with lighter aluminium alternatives this steel piece moves a little more mass down in the chassis to influence rear traction and handling feel while keeping the same suspension geometry.
Installation is routine for anyone used to YZ-2 rear servicing: remove the stock mount, shift any spacers or bushings across, and fasten the steel RF mount with the chassis' original bolts. Double-check thread engagement and torque settings after the first runs to prevent fastener loosening.
As a tuning tool the heavier mount helps promote rear traction and a more settled rear-end on loose surfaces. Use it together with spring and damper adjustments to fine-tune corner entry and mid-corner balance for varying track conditions.
