Front tower for RC18T racing setups

This graphite front shock tower is an aftermarket upgrade intended for use on the Team Associated RC18T chassis. The unit integrates a body post to retain or relocate the front body mounting while preserving the suspension mounting geometry.

Specified for drivers who tune chassis response, the graphite construction offers a targeted increase in front-end stiffness without adding unnecessary mass. The component is suited to setups where sharper steering input and reduced flex are priorities.

Installation notes: mount the tower to the RC18T front shock and suspension points and use the supplied body post to secure the body shell. Verify that shock eyelet spacing and hardware compatibility match your current configuration before final assembly. This product is for RC-scale model use only.

How does this tower change front-end stiffness?

Graphite reduces compliance at the top mount compared with many plastics, which typically results in a firmer front end and crisper steering response; tuning adjustments may be required to balance the chassis.

Are additional spacers or hardware needed?

Most installations use existing RC18T hardware, but confirm washer and screw lengths to ensure correct shock eyelet preload and secure body post fitment.

What setup steps should follow installation?

After fitting, check shock alignment, re-evaluate front spring or damping rates if needed, and ensure the body sits correctly on the integrated post before track use.
