Front top mount for FW05RR

This front shock tower mount is an aftermarket upgrade intended for the Kyosho FW05RR chassis, made from SSG graphite to raise stiffness at the shock top. The goal is to reduce flex and preserve a low mass that suits 1/10 on-road racing and club practice sessions.

Swapping to this tower alters the shock top rigidity and slightly changes the pickup geometry, which can yield tighter steering response and steadier handling under load. The component is a direct-fit replacement concentrating on accurate alignment and consistent performance rather than additional adjustment features.

Installation needs only standard RC tools and common workshop practice. Verify tower alignment, shock shaft clearance and spring/piston spacing during setup before final tightening. This mount is for model-scale suspension tuning and not suitable for full-size applications.

Specifications

Compatibility: Kyosho FW05RR chassis.

Use this mount when you need a firmer shock top for more predictable front-end balance during track tuning and setup work.

Yes, it is targeted at on-road 1/10 racing and practice environments where reduced top flex is beneficial to handling consistency.
The change is primarily in top mount rigidity and pickup geometry; major suspension geometry like toe and camber should remain as set, but always recheck alignment after installation.
Generally you can reuse existing hardware where indicated, but inspect screws for wear and replace if threads or heads are damaged.
Check the mount after heavy impact sessions and during regular maintenance intervals to ensure hole integrity and even bolt torque across the assembly.
