Tuning options with the titanium front shock tower for LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0

This 1/5-scale front shock tower is a machined titanium replacement intended for the LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 platform. It keeps the original thickness while providing extra hole positions on both sides to let you experiment with front shock angle for fine tuning handling characteristics on desert truck layouts.

The part is produced using a wire-cut machining process. As a result you may see fine machining marks or occasional light burrs along edges and minor surface scratches from handling; these are process characteristics and do not affect structural strength or fitment when installed correctly. Original part number referenced in source: LOS-3689.

Swap to this titanium tower to repair damage or to increase shock mounting choices for suspension tuning; confirm fitment before final assembly and remove any loose burrs so screws seat cleanly and shocks track correctly.

How do the extra mounting holes change handling?

Moving the shock pivot alters leverage and damping feel; higher or lower mounting points will affect dive and roll, so test one change at a time to judge handling differences.

Any recommended method for experimenting with shock angles?

Try a single-step change and run short tests, keeping notes on shock angle and ride behavior. Revert quickly if the change produces undesirable handling and proceed incrementally.

Does the new tower keep the same material thickness?

Yes, the design preserves the original thickness to maintain strength while offering added mounting flexibility for tuning purposes.

Can I use this tower as a direct replacement for a broken unit?

It is intended as a replacement; check alignment and clear any loose burrs before final assembly to ensure correct shock geometry and secure screw seating.
