Competition rear tower for M05L applications

This rear shock tower is a performance-oriented replacement designed for the TAMIYA M05 platform, supplied as part number M05-06L/LB. It establishes the rear shock mounting pattern and integrates with the factory rear bulkhead and suspension pick-ups used on M05 touring cars.

Use is restricted to M05-class TAMIYA chassis as indicated by the part code. The component installs using the original mounting holes and standard hardware; technicians should confirm precise alignment and proper thread engagement before final tightening. No specialised machining is anticipated for standard setups.

From a tuning perspective, the tower fixes the shock mounting geometry that controls roll centre and shock leverage ratios. For track setups, document each mounting hole change and correlate it with damper and spring adjustments to produce repeatable handling outcomes.

What is the best way to log mounting changes?

Record hole index, shock length and spring rate for each run. Use small incremental changes to isolate effects on understeer or oversteer.

Will different mounting positions require damper revalving?

Changing leverage alters damping load; reassess valving and rebound settings after significant mount shifts to maintain tyre contact behaviour.

Any fitment checks before racing?

Verify tower-to-bulkhead clearance, shock eyelet alignment and fastener torque. Ensure no binding through full suspension travel before track sessions.
