BD7 SLF Short-Shock Conversion Overview

This conversion kit provides a short-shock solution to modify shock mounting geometry on BD7 SLF setups. It offers a compact damper stack option that changes effective shock length and the suspension response without requiring full shock replacement.

Purpose and scope:

  • Enables conversion to shorter shock assemblies to suit specific SLF layout preferences.
  • Used as a tuning component to adjust ride height, shock angle, and transient response during track setup sessions.
  • Functions as an aftermarket accessory for hobbyists tuning their damping package and geometry; this is an RC-scale part only.

Installation and tuning notes:

  • Fitting typically replaces existing shock top or bottom mounts or uses the kit adapters to shorten the effective shock length; follow any manufacturer fitting points if supplied.
  • Shorter shocks reduce available travel and alter leverage ratios, so re-evaluate spring rates, oil viscosity, and shock piston selection after installation.
  • Verify clearance for suspension movement and steering through full compression and rebound cycles when testing the new geometry.

As a targeted tuning part, this short shock conversion kit is useful when adjusting BD7 SLF shock geometry is part of a planned setup change; always evaluate suspension travel and damping after fitting to confirm the handling balance you want.

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.
Shortening the effective shock length changes leverage and reduces travel, which typically sharpens transient response but can decrease compliance; expect different corner bite and mid-corner behavior after tuning.
The kit is designed for BD7 SLF configurations as stated; confirm your chassis mounting points match the kit adapters or mounts before purchasing to ensure proper fitment.
In most cases yes. Reduced shock length alters travel and leverage ratios, so softer or stiffer spring rates and different oil viscosities may be required to regain the desired balance and ride height.
No. This is a conversion kit intended to change mounting points or use adapter components to shorten effective length; check the kit contents to see if full shock replacement is needed for your setup.
