Racing-oriented graphite rear tower

This graphite rear shock tower is engineered for the TAMIYA M05 chassis and sold under the 3Racing part number M05-06/WO. It replaces the OEM plastic tower with a stiffer graphite mounting platform to minimise local compliance at the shock pickup and to deliver clearer input to setup changes during competitive running.

Fitment follows standard M05 procedures: remove the original tower, transfer the shock mount pins and fasteners, and secure the graphite tower to the factory mounting bosses. The component is a direct-fit upgrade and requires only common hex tools for installation.

From a tuning perspective, decreased flex at the shock mounting area results in crisper rear response and more repeatable rebound behaviour, helping teams and experienced drivers extract consistent handling through incremental damping and spring adjustments.

Is this tower suitable for competitive setup work?

Yes. The stiffer graphite platform reduces variability at the shock mount, which aids precise tuning and repeatable setup changes.

Will this require changes to shock internals?

In most cases no. The tower changes mounting stiffness rather than internal shock characteristics, so only minor damping or spring adjustments are typically needed.

How does this part support consistent lap times?

By stabilising the shock pickup and reducing local flex, the tower helps maintain predictable rear behaviour, making setup changes more effective and repeatable across runs.
