This graphite rear tower is an aftermarket replacement suitable for the TAMIYA DF03 chassis, created to locate rear shock absorbers and secure suspension link geometry. The graphite plate offers a stiffer mounting surface than typical plastic towers while remaining lightweight to preserve handling balance.
Fitting is straightforward as a direct swap to the DF03 rear tower locations, using the chassis original screw points and hardware after removing the stock part. Ensure the tower is aligned before final tightening and keep any original spacers or washers to maintain correct damper shaft position.
From a tuning standpoint, a graphite upper mount reduces top-end flex and can alter rear behaviour under load. Use the tower to test different damper angles and mount positions while monitoring ride height and tracking to dial in handling.
