Precision bell crank for BD8 2018

This aluminum steering bell crank is a direct-fit replacement designed for the BD8 2018 platform. The assembly uses press-fitted bearings to reduce steering slop and keep the steering links moving consistently during runs.

Fitment is focused on BD8 2018 series chassis and the MRTC-BD818 / MRTC-BD818A variants listed. Installation requires careful alignment of the bell crank with the existing steering link geometry and verification that the pressed bearings rotate freely before final tightening.

Tuning role: the part establishes a firmer steering pivot to help preserve linkage geometry under load, aiding repeatable toe and turn-in behavior as you refine setup increments.

Specifications

  • Item Steering bell crank set for BD8 2018
  • Material Aluminum
  • Model Number B8-202SS
  • Compatibility BD8 2018, MRTC-BD818, MRTC-BD818A

Fit this bell crank when worn plastic pivots need replacement or when a stiffer aluminum pivot is required to keep steering response consistent on on-road circuits.
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.

Will this bell crank only fit BD8 2018?

It is specified for the BD8 2018 platform and explicitly lists compatibility with MRTC-BD818 and MRTC-BD818A chassis variants.

Should I lubricate the press-fitted bearings before installation?

A light film of lubricant is acceptable to help initial rotation, but avoid excess lube that attracts track debris; confirm smooth spin after press-fitting.

Will aluminum change the steering feel compared with plastic parts?

Aluminum reduces pivot flex relative to stock plastic, often producing a firmer, more consistent steering response under load which can aid precision driving.

What checks should I do after fitting the bell crank?

After installation check that bearings rotate freely, steering geometry is unchanged, and there is no binding anywhere through the full steering throw before track use.
