Kyosho FW05-R Front Aluminum Shock Tower Mount by 3Racing FW05-004  [FW05-004]

This front shock tower mount is offered for Kyosho FW05-R scale models and serves as an aluminum replacement for the stock front shock tower. Its stated compatibility is specific to the FW05-R chassis, providing a rigid mounting point intended to influence front suspension behavior on scale RC cars.

Installation is straightforward for experienced hobbyists: the mount installs at the vehicle's existing front tower location and uses the chassis' original mounting points and hardware. Verify hole alignment and torque fasteners to prevent flex or thread damage when fitting to your FW05-R chassis.

On setup and tuning, a metal tower changes the front-end response by reducing compliance at the shock anchor, which can affect steering feedback and suspension movement. Use this part when you want a firmer mounting foundation for shock placement and to explore different damping and roll characteristics during track setup.
