Coming from Yeah Racing and made for Yokomo’s YD2 series of RWD drift cars are two new front end aluminium option parts in the form of a front bulkhead bridge and an upper arm holder. Starting with the bulkhead bridge, the part is machined from high-quality aluminium and it improves the front end rigidity of the 2WD drift chassis. The part comes black anodised and with silver edge details and it includes two aluminium bushings.
