Tamiya Thunder Shot/Thunder Dragon Precision Rear Shock Tower JR-TSD02-BK by Jazrider  [JR-TSD02-BK]

Rear shock tower summary

This precision aluminium rear shock tower is intended for 1/10-scale Tamiya Thunder Shot and Thunder Dragon buggies and carries model number JR-TSD02-BK. It provides a more rigid mounting point than the original plastic tower for the rear shocks and related linkages.

Fit and installation: the component is designed to match the stock chassis screw bosses and shock mounting locations. Check alignment and use the original fixings where suitable to maintain the correct geometry. After fitting, small adjustments to shock length or mounting position may be necessary to return ride height and camber to their previous settings.

Tuning notes: replacing the plastic tower with aluminium reduces mount flex and alters suspension feedback, which can improve repeatability over rough sections. Use this upgrade while experimenting with spring rates, shock oil weight, or link geometry to determine the effect; further setup trimming may be required to achieve the preferred handling balance.
