Yokomo SD-018GC3 SSG R. Shock Tower — rear graphite shock tower for SSG drift conversion  [SD-018GC3]

SSG rear shock tower overview

This is an SS graphite rear shock tower intended for the SSG conversion used in a drift package, designed specifically as an RC-scale replacement/upgraded rear tower. The component serves as a mounting point for the rear shock absorbers and contributes to the structural stiffness of the rear subframe in drift chassis setups.

Installation is part of the SSG conversion workflow and typically replaces the stock rear tower in that conversion kit. As a graphite component it focuses on maintaining lightweight stiffness without adding scale weight, and it integrates into the chassis using the conversion kit's existing mounting scheme. Confirm alignment and clearances during installation to preserve intended suspension geometry.

In tuning, a stiffer rear tower shifts how the suspension reacts under lateral loads, helping stabilise shock positions and affecting body roll and traction transitions during drifts. Use this part when you need consistent rear mounting points and a predictable change in rear-end stiffness within RC drift setups.
