TAMIYA TA05 Rear Graphite Shock Tower by 3Racing TA05-03/WO  [TA05-03/WO]

Rear shock tower for TA05 series

This 3Racing rear shock tower is a graphite replacement designed for TAMIYA TA05, TA05-IFS and TA05-R chassis configurations. It is an RC-scale accessory intended to mount the rear shocks and influence rear-end stiffness without altering other drivetrain components.

Graphite offers higher rigidity than many stock plastic towers while keeping weight low, which changes how the rear suspension reacts to load and cornering. Expect differences in chassis flex and shock behavior that should be considered when tuning springs, dampers, and anti-roll settings.

Installation follows the existing mounting points on TA05 series rear bulkhead areas using the stock screw locations, so no chassis modification is required when replacing the original tower. Use standard hobby hex drivers and verify screw torque to avoid over-tightening carbon fiber or graphite parts.

For setup, treat this part as a handling adjustment rather than a performance upgrade: increasing rear stiffness with a graphite tower can reduce unwanted deflection but may shift balance, so retune shock damping and ride height to restore the desired handling balance for track or practice sessions.
