This aluminium front/rear shock tower is an aftermarket replacement crafted for TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST vehicles, supplied as a 1 pcs set and referenced by part number SST012A. It replaces the factory plastic tower and supplies a rigid mounting point for the suspension assembly.
Use this component during suspension tuning or when evaluating different shock and spring pairings; the aluminium construction gives a firmer mounting surface versus typical plastic towers and will affect damping and load transfer at the chassis mounting points. Confirm chassis alignment prior to final installation.
Installation guidance: the tower matches the original LaTrax SST mounting layout and serves as a tuning element to alter how front and rear suspension loads feed into the chassis. After fitting, inspect shock orientation and preload settings to dial in the required handling characteristics.
