Yokomo YS-1560L Pro Shock Spring Long Orange - Shock Spring for RC Suspension Tuning  [YOKYS1560L]

Pro shock spring for tuning

The Yokomo YS-1560L is a long, orange-coded pro shock spring intended as an RC-scale suspension accessory for model tuning and setup adjustments. It serves as a drop-in option when longer spring travel or different preload range is required in a shock assembly, and it is presented as a single accessory piece for scale models rather than a vehicle component.

Practical role: long shock springs change the preload range and the effective ride height of the model, and they work together with damper oil and piston selection to shape transient response and corner support. When adding a longer spring, expect changes in static ride height and a need to re-evaluate damping to maintain control through bumps and turns.

Installation notes: verify internal length and spring seat dimensions of your shock before fitting, then remove the shock from the model, decompress the spring, swap springs while checking that the spring seats correctly on the retainer and shock shaft, and reassemble. After installation, perform a few low-speed tests to confirm there is no binding and to set preload and damping for the new spring length.

Tuning tips: use the spring to adjust chassis balance and roll stiffness in small increments, combine with damping and anti-roll adjustments, and track results with measured changes to ride height and steering response rather than relying on visual guesswork.
