The FW06-16 front shock tower is an aftermarket replacement part for the Kyosho FW-06 chassis, designed to provide a direct-fit front shock mounting option. It uses the same mounting interface as the stock tower to work with the car's existing suspension layout.
Compatibility is concentrated on the FW-06 family; the tower is shaped to align with the FW-06 front bulkhead and shock mounts so you can normally reuse the chassis' original mounting points and hardware. No custom machining is needed since the part follows the intended mounting geometry.
In use the tower ensures shock top mounts stay in the correct relation to the front suspension so ride height and shock travel remain consistent. Swapping in a replacement tower is a standard repair or tuning move after impact damage and supports routine setup tasks such as spring swaps and damper adjustments without changing baseline geometry.
Installation tip: verify the alignment of existing shock mounts during replacement and fit using original hardware where it matches; check for minor aftermarket vs factory differences before final setup on the bench.
