This rear shock tower is an RC-scale replacement part designed for the Kyosho Mini Inferno ST chassis, offered by 3Racing as model MIF-ST06/BU. Constructed from aluminum, the tower serves as the mounting point for the rear shock absorbers and links, providing a direct, metal-to-metal interface where the original plastic part is commonly fitted.
Fitment and function are straightforward: it is intended to use the existing Mini Inferno ST shock locations and hardware, maintaining stock geometry while changing the stiffness and flex characteristics at the rear mounting area. Swapping to an aluminum tower alters how the rear suspension responds under load, affecting roll stiffness and shock leverage without changing spring or damper internals.
Installation notes: this part replaces the factory rear shock tower and mounts to the same chassis points, so no chassis modification should be necessary. Confirm alignment of shock shafts and linkages after installation to avoid binding, and verify that body clearance and shock travel remain correct before running the car. For tuning, move shocks between available mounting holes to fine-tune roll and rear-end behavior; small changes in mounting height and fore-aft position will change chassis balance.
