Wider rear tuning range with the extended GT tower

The XRAY 353044 GT Carbon Rear Shock Tower - Extended is a rear suspension upgrade made to increase setup versatility without changing the core chassis layout. Fabricated from carbon fiber, the extended design offers additional upper shock mounting holes and adjusted camber link anchors to better dial rear behavior across a variety of surfaces and grip levels.

Practically, the new upper mount points give you more leverage to boost traction on slippery or uneven tracks, while choosing lower shock positions moves handling toward less roll and a flatter cornering posture at speed. The camber link revisions help stabilise the rear and make traction shifts more manageable, aiding consistent lap-to-lap performance.

Integrated dual rear wing mounts let you quickly test aerodynamic balance changes for the rear end. This piece is intended as a replacement for hobby GT-style chassis that match the tower mounting pattern.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

What setup changes should I try first with the extended tower?

Start by testing the new upper shock positions to see how added leverage affects bite; small incremental moves will reveal whether you gain traction or introduce unwanted roll.

Is the 353044 tower likely to fit other GT-pattern cars?

Fit depends on identical mounting hole spacing and overall geometry. Measure your current tower and verify the 353044 pattern before assuming compatibility.

Will carbon stiffness change shock action?

Because carbon keeps structural points rigid, shock movement and link geometry remain consistent under load, which improves repeatability during hard runs.

Do I need different wings for the dual mounts?

You can use the same wing; the twin mount positions just let you alter lever arm and height to change rear downforce and handling balance.

How should I inspect the tower after a crash?

Examine the mounting holes and edges for chip-out or delamination and check that screw torque is correct; replace the part if you find structural damage.

Any advice for preserving carbon edges?

Avoid sharp impacts and keep edges free from deep gouges; small touch-up sanding and protective tape can reduce stress concentrations in heavy use.
