Rear tower description and fit

Made for 1/10 Tamiya Thunder Shot and Thunder Dragon buggies, this CNC aluminium rear shock tower is supplied as model JR-TSD02-BK. It replaces the factory plastic tower to deliver a stronger mounting location for rear shocks and linkage parts.

Fit and installation: installation uses the existing chassis screw points and shock mounting holes. Verify alignment before tightening and retain the factory fasteners where appropriate to preserve stock geometry. You may need to tweak shock positions or lengths after installation to regain original ride characteristics.

Tuning impact: an aluminium tower reduces mount flex and will typically make rear responses more predictable on demanding terrain. Fit this part when testing spring rates, shock oil, or camber link setups to observe how a stiffer mount alters handling. Additional setup tuning is often required to achieve the desired balance.

Will this fit straight onto the Thunder Shot/Thunder Dragon chassis?

Yes, it is intended as a direct replacement using the stock mounting points, but always confirm hole alignment and test fit before full assembly.

How should I retune after installing an aluminium tower?

Start with your baseline spring and oil settings, then adjust shock length and camber links incrementally; reduced mount flex typically calls for minor changes to soften the rear if it becomes too sharp.
