Lower caster block details and function

This Yokomo YOKIB41312R lower caster block is an RC-scale suspension component specified for DRB and DIB chassis platforms. The part presents a fixed 12 degree caster geometry in a red aluminum body, intended to alter front-end steering characteristics and support precise steering geometry adjustments on model touring cars.

The component's role is purely geometric: it locates the lower suspension pivot to establish caster angle and contributes to steering feel and weight transfer behavior at the front axle. When fitted to a DRB or DIB chassis, it provides a consistent reference angle for iterative setup changes during track testing.

Installation notes: this block mounts at the lower caster position on DRB/DIB series suspension assemblies and replaces the corresponding factory lower block. No additional accessories are specified here; use the existing mounting hardware and follow the chassis manufacturer's fastener and torque recommendations.

Specifications

  • Item: Aluminum lower caster block, 12 degree, red
  • Material: Aluminum
  • Model Number: YOKIB41312R
  • Compatibility: DRB/DIB

Provided as a simple geometry part for DRB and DIB chassis, this lower caster block helps hobbyists calibrate front steering response and refine corner entry through consistent caster settings.
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 does a fixed 12 degree caster change steering feel?

A 12 degree lower caster block sets the static caster angle at the lower suspension pivot, which shifts how the front wheels recover camber during roll and alters steering effort and turn-in balance.

Is this part suitable for other chassis beyond DRB and DIB?

The listing specifies DRB and DIB compatibility. Fitment to other platforms should only be attempted after checking dimensions and mounting points or confirming with the chassis fitment data.

What should I check when installing the block?

Verify correct orientation, use the factory lower mounting location, tighten fasteners to the chassis manufacturer's torque values, and recheck steering geometry before track runs.

Will swapping this block affect corner entry?

Yes. Changing caster alters camber recovery and weight transfer at the front, so a 12 degree baseline will change turn-in and mid-corner steering compared with other caster settings.
