This is an RC-scale machined aluminum rear shock tower designed for the TAMIYA DT-03 chassis, supplied as part number JR-DT303-BK by JAZRIDER. It acts as a direct replacement for the stock plastic tower to provide a firmer mounting point for rear shocks and to simplify precise changes to rear suspension geometry.
Compatibility and role: Intended for DT-03 layouts, the tower mounts to the factory rear bulkhead using the DT-03 shock mounting pattern. As an aftermarket structural upgrade, it establishes repeatable shock pickup points and supports tuning tasks like adjusting shock angles, roll center, and anti-squat while keeping other suspension parts unchanged.
Installation notes: Install to the DT-03 rear mounting points and, where appropriate, reuse the chassis original mounting hardware and shock screws. Typical installation steps include removing the original tower, positioning the aluminum tower on the chassis, and securing it into the factory screw positions. Recheck alignment and shock eye-to-eye distance after installation before operating the model.
Tuning guidance: This tower is suitable when you require more consistent mounting for comparative setup testing. Because the part is metal it reduces flex at the shock pivots compared with plastic, which helps when isolating the effects of spring and damper changes.
