This machined aluminium rear shock tower is built to fit the TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST chassis and serves as the rear shock attachment point. It is intended as an aftermarket replacement to offer a firmer mounting surface than stock plastic options.
Replacing the factory plastic tower with aluminium helps keep shock alignment stable during suspension movement, which supports more reliable setup adjustments and predictable handling during spirited driving.
Installation notes: the component is made to the original mounting locations on the LaTrax SST 1/18 and typically installs with the car's existing hardware. You will need to remove the rear bodywork to gain access; check fit and alignment before final tightening.
Tuning role: install this tower when experimenting with different shock bodies, spring rates, or mounting positions. The aluminium backing reduces flex at the mounting points so the effects of each change are clearer on track.
