Short shock shaft replacement

This Yokomo YOKB7-S5S shock shaft is an RC-scale replacement made for BD7-2014 SLF short shocks. It is intended as a direct service item for SLF short shock assemblies so you can carry out routine maintenance or repair without altering the shock body.

Use this shaft when a bent or worn piston rod is degrading damper performance. Typical fitment steps on a model car damper include removing the shock from the suspension, taking off the end caps and spring, extracting the old shaft and piston assembly, fitting the replacement shaft, and reassembling while checking oil level and shaft alignment. Follow the shock manufacturer or your service practice for oil weight and piston selection; this part replaces the mechanical shaft component and does not itself change damping rates.

For upkeep and tuning the shaft functions purely as a mechanical service piece: straightness and precise fit reduce seal wear and friction, so inspect the shaft during regular service to preserve consistent damper action. This item is described as a 1/10 scale RC damper component and is not for full-size vehicle use.
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.

How do I install the YOKB7-S5S shaft into BD7-2014 SLF short shocks?

Remove the shock from the model, drain or remove the spring and end caps, pull out the piston and old shaft, slide in the replacement shaft, reinstall piston and seals, then check oil level and alignment before refitting the shock. Follow standard shock service steps.

What tools are needed to change the shaft?

Basic shock service tools such as shock pliers, a set of hex drivers, and a soft work surface are sufficient. No specialized tooling beyond common RC maintenance tools is required.

Will swapping the shaft alter damping behavior?

Replacing the shaft itself does not change oil viscosity or piston geometry, so damping rates remain determined by the oil and piston combination rather than the mechanical shaft part.
