This front shock tower is an aluminium replacement aimed at TRX-4 scale crawlers, enabling changes to shock mounting positions and suspension geometry without removing the stock shock units. Constructed from 6061 T6 aluminium, it offers a lightweight but rigid mount that resists bending under load.
The tower includes multiple mounting holes for varying shock angle and ride height; selecting a different top mount adjusts axle articulation and shock leverage to suit boulder fields, ledges or loose trails. Each position secures the damper to keep it aligned through steering and suspension travel.
Fitting hardware supplied from the original source includes: front shock tower 2pcs, stainless steel round head screw 3x16 2pcs, stainless steel flat head screw 3x10 4pcs, stainless steel round head screw 3x18 2pcs, and 3x6x2 alloy collar 4pcs. Observe correct fastener torque and verify steering/skid clearance before operating.
Fitment notice: the tower is listed for TRAXXAS TRX-4 DEFENDER 82056-4 and TACTICAL UNIT 82066-4. Other TRX-4 variants may require trimming of adjacent skids or brackets to clear the tower; always trial-fit on your chassis.
Use this aluminium front adjustable tower to experiment with shock geometry on climbs and technical trails, concentrating tuning on link positions and damper settings rather than replacing shock assemblies.
