This 9pcs rear shock tower is a CNC-machined aluminium upgrade intended for the TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL chassis, providing a stiff and repeatable shock-top mounting interface. The main component is machined from 6061 T6 aluminium and the kit includes stainless steel round head screws to attach the tower to existing shock mounts and the body shell.
Functionally, the tower reduces deflection at the shock top and ensures consistent hole geometry under load, with multiple top-mount options to change leverage and tune anti-squat and roll characteristics. The CNC process delivers tight tolerances for predictable setup changes.
Installation notes: the tower mounts to the Rustler VXL factory points and the supplied fasteners correspond to common Rustler thread sizes; standard hex drivers are sufficient. Make incremental top-mount changes and validate settings on a test surface to confirm dynamic behaviour.
As a precision GPM upgrade, the RUS4030 tower replaces the standard plastic tower with a CNC-accurate aluminium alternative to deliver improved structural stability and consistent shock positioning for serious tuners.
