This graphite rear shock tower is specified for the TAMIYA TRF 416 chassis as part 416-16/WO and provides a stiffer mounting interface for rear shock absorbers and upper linkages. The component is intended as a tuning element to control deflection at the shock mounts and to enhance suspension feedback for setup refinement.
Installation utilises the TRF 416 rear bulkhead's factory screw pattern, maintaining original stacking order with existing spacers and fasteners. No supplementary hardware is supplied, so reuse OEM screws to preserve fit and alignment precision during the swap.
Functionally the tower reduces elastic deformation at the mounting points relative to compliant stamped or molded alternatives, which supports finer damping and spring rate adjustments and provides a more direct rear-end response for competitive setup work.
