Precision front shock tower for GT-01 setups

Engineered as an aluminium replacement for the GT-01 front shock tower, this light blue finished component provides a rigid mounting platform for the upper shock mounts and associated suspension hardware. The design supports consistent shock geometry and repeatable tuning adjustments compared with stock plastic towers.

Installation retains existing shock mounts and ball studs to preserve original shock length and geometry. The tower locates between the shock absorbers and front bulkhead, facilitating measured changes to mounting positions without altering core suspension components.

Use the tower to adjust shock angles, roll centre and ride height through alternate mounting holes as part of a coordinated setup routine; note that springs and dampers remain separate items and must be tuned in concert with the tower for optimal performance.

What should be retained from the original tower during fitment?

Retain your existing shock mounts and ball studs and transfer them to this tower to keep original shock length and preserve baseline geometry.

Does the part require additional machining or modification?

No machining is typically required; the tower is a direct-fit upgrade for GT-01 patterns, though verifying hole alignment before final assembly is recommended.

How does this tower impact tuning repeatability?

A firmer aluminium mounting surface reduces flex at the shock top mount, improving repeatability when changing mount positions or testing damper settings.
