This front and rear shock tower kit fits the Tamiya CC-02 chassis and is finished in blue anodized aluminum; the item is identified as JR-CC203-LB. Replacing the moulded plastic pieces with these machined towers gives a firmer anchor for the shock caps and helps maintain consistent geometry under varied loads.
Fitting follows the CC-02 factory layout and uses the standard hardware points. When installing, check that the shocks seat naturally and do not bind; tighten fasteners incrementally and confirm full travel before final assembly to avoid preloading the suspension.
Upgrading to aluminum at the shock top typically sharpens the onset of suspension action and lessens lateral flex. This makes it easier to predict handling when testing different spring rates or mounting positions, but it can require parallel adjustments to shock oil or spring stiffness to preserve the overall balance.
