TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST Aluminium Rear Shock Tower by GPM SST030  [SST030]

Aluminium Rear Shock Tower

This is an aluminium rear shock tower designed for the TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST RC platform, supplied as an RC-scale replacement part by GPM. The component serves as the mounting point for the rear shock absorbers and ties into the vehicle's rear suspension layout.

The tower is intended to replace the stock rear shock tower on the LaTrax SST chassis and provides a firmer aluminium mounting surface compared with typical plastic pieces. That firmer mount helps maintain consistent shock alignment during suspension travel, which can aid repeatable tuning adjustments.

Installation notes: this part is made to match the original rear shock mounting locations for the 1/18 LaTrax SST chassis, it typically installs using the vehicle's existing fasteners and mounting holes, and requires basic disassembly of the rear bodywork to access the shock tower area. Check fit and alignment before final tightening.

Tuning role: use this rear shock tower as a stable foundation when changing shock bodies, spring rates, or mounting positions; the aluminium backing reduces flex at the mounting points so suspension changes translate more consistently to on-track behavior.
