Technical overview

This 9pcs aluminium front shock tower is engineered for the TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL chassis to provide a rigid, repeatable mounting surface for the front shocks while reinforcing the body mounting area. The primary plate is CNC machined from 6061 T6 aluminium to meet a balance of rigidity and mass suitable for tuning front-end behaviour.

The tower incorporates a matrix of shock top positions to permit controlled changes to shock angle and mounting height, enabling precise adjustments to effective motion ratio and front-end response without replacing springs or dampers.

The supplied kit comprises nine components: one machined shock tower and eight stainless steel round head screws in assorted lengths intended for direct attachment to the stock mounting points described in the specifications.

Yet another fantastic set of parts from GPM Iv really been able to have a lot of fun upgrading essentially everything on my new rustler. The parts are so accurate are smooth and immaculate. Great shipping too and well packaged

Does the tower require any chassis modification to fit?

No chassis modification is expected; the tower is designed for direct fitment to the stock front mounting points on the TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL.

What machining process is used for the plate?

The main plate is CNC machined from 6061 T6 aluminium to provide consistent geometry and a durable mounting surface suitable for precise setup adjustments.

How should I verify screw engagement during assembly?

Install screws to achieve full thread engagement without bottoming out; confirm that each screw length matches its mounting point and that threads engage the chassis inserts or tapped holes correctly.

What tuning benefits does the hole matrix deliver?

The hole matrix allows small, repeatable changes to shock top geometry that affect leverage and angle, providing a practical method to refine front bite, turn-in and mid-corner balance without other suspension swaps.
