DT-04 front and rear aluminium shock towers

Designed for the TAMIYA DT-04 RC FIGHTER NXGEN chassis and identified as DT402830FR, this front and rear tower set is CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminium to provide repeatable hole spacing and a crisp finish suitable for suspension upgrades.

Multiple shock mounting locations let you adjust angle and leverage to change damping behaviour and roll response without altering arms or mounts. Moving the shock pivot point is an effective method for incremental setup changes.

Installation replaces the OEM plastic towers with these alloy pieces; check that existing fasteners fit or source compatible hardware. Verify fit with TAMIYA 1/10 DT-04 RC FIGHTER NXGEN-58741 and confirm clearance and alignment before final tightening.

Packing includes

  • Front Shock Tower - 1pcs
  • Rear Shock Tower - 1pcs

Compatible Models

DT402830FR towers give DT-04 drivers a robust alloy choice for dependable mounting geometry and flexible shock placement when testing setups.

Will these towers fit a stock DT-04 without modification?

They are made for the DT-04 NXGEN-58741 layout; most stock mounting points match but always trial-fit before final assembly to check for minor differences.

How should I adjust shock angle for corner grip?

Lowering the top mount angle typically increases mid-corner grip while raising it can sharpen initial turn-in; make one change at a time and note results.

Is corrosion a concern with aluminium towers?

7075-T6 is corrosion resistant but regular cleaning and light lubrication on fasteners helps prevent galvanic issues where different metals contact.

Can I re-use the original shock hardware?

Yes when the original screws match the tower holes; otherwise fit appropriate length screws and threadlocker as needed for secure assembly.

Do the towers affect ride height?

Towers change mounting geometry only; ride height is set by shocks and springs, though altered leverage can change effective damping feel.
