This aluminium and plastic rear axle protector mount is a scale replacement designed for use on the Axial Racing Yeti platform. It provides a protective load path to shield the rear axle from direct impacts while helping to maintain suspension geometry during aggressive off-road and rock runs.
The component blends machined aluminium for structural strength with plastic mating faces to preserve fit tolerance and part compliance. Installation uses standard RC hardware and common workshop tools; the unit is supplied as a single set and replaces the stock rear axle protector mount for a firmer connection between chassis and axle.
From a setup perspective the YT168R is used to guard the axle assembly and to slightly change axial compliance between chassis and axle. Hobbyists install this part when they need repeatable axle alignment after impacts or when fitting upgraded driveline parts that require a more robust mounting point.
This mount is a straightforward aftermarket choice for scale drivers seeking a balance of stiffness and tolerance at the rear axle; check fit and hardware before final installation.
