Team Associated RC18T Graphite Rear Shock Tower RC18-006A by 3Racing  [RC18-006A]

Graphite rear shock tower for RC18T

This graphite rear shock tower with integrated body post is made to fit the Team Associated RC18T chassis and is catalogued as RC18-006A. It replaces the factory rear tower to provide a firmer shock top mounting point while preserving the original hole pattern and bodypost location.

The design prioritises rear bulkhead stiffness to help reduce chassis flex during hard cornering and braking. Riders will notice more direct rear feedback and improved consistency when cycling through different shock oils and spring rates.

Fitting is straightforward for anyone familiar with routine RC maintenance: remove the stock tower, move required hardware and shock top mounts across, secure the graphite tower to the stock screw positions, then verify ride height and shock preload. No additional machining is necessary for standard RC18T layouts.

Expect subtle changes in rear traction and rotation characteristics; tune spring rates, shock oil and anti-roll bar settings incrementally to dial in balance. Always double-check screw retention and thread engagement when swapping composites with metal fasteners.
