Graphite Rear Shock Tower for FF-03 Chassis

The 3Racing Graphite Rear Shock Tower provides a robust upgrade point for the Tamiya FF-03 chassis, delivering added stiffness at the rear mounting points. This component is manufactured in graphite to help control flex and stabilise cornering behaviour.

Why Graphite Works on the FF-03

Graphite balances strength and low mass, keeping unsprung weight down while improving structural rigidity. Replacing the stock tower reduces unwanted movement in the suspension mounts so the dampers can work more predictably.

Quick Fit Guide

Replacement is bolt-on for the Tamiya FF-03 with no trimming required. Ensure screws are torqued evenly and inspect mounting points after initial runs. This upgrade is useful for precision track setups and regular club racing use.

Can I use this tower with different shock lengths?

The tower fits the stock FF-03 shock geometry; longer or shorter shocks may require ride height and mounting point adjustments to maintain correct geometry.

Is special hardware needed to fit the graphite tower?

Standard FF-03 hardware is normally compatible. Replace any stripped screws and use thread lock on metal-to-plastic joints to prevent loosening.

Will this affect handling on slippery surfaces?

Increased rear rigidity tends to make the car more predictable under load, but you may need spring or damper tuning for low-grip surfaces to balance behaviour.

Is graphite durable for regular track use?

Quality graphite parts are durable for typical racing and practises, but inspect for cracks after impacts and replace if any damage appears.
