This CNC-friendly aluminium front damper plate is specified for the Axial Yeti XL chassis and carries model number YTL028. It functions as the mounting platform for the front shock assembly and is intended for maintenance cycles or measured setup changes. Supplied as a single machined plate, it is suitable for replacing a worn stock plate or integrating into staged upgrades where a metal mount provides repeatable alignment and improved wear resistance.
Installation follows the standard replacement process: remove the front shock tower or related fasteners on the Yeti XL chassis, transfer the shocks and associated hardware to the machined plate, and tighten using the original fasteners. After assembly, inspect shock alignment and travel, and where repeated high-load use is expected apply a medium-strength threadlocker on metal-to-metal screws to safeguard against loosening. Focus on accurate fitment and serviceability when installing this precision component.
Use this machined aluminium damper plate when you require consistent mounting geometry and robust metal fitment for the Axial Yeti XL front shocks.
