Precision Graphite Tower for Vintage RX Chassis

The XRAY 342080 Graphite Front Shock Tower suits hobbyists working on older RX series cars. Fabricated from 2.5mm graphite, it offers a robust yet light front mount that resists flex during aggressive cornering. Upper shock positions are arranged to give clear tuning steps for ride height and roll control.

Lightweight Strength from 2.5mm Graphite

Engineered from premium graphite, the XRAY 342080 delivers improved rigidity without a heavy weight penalty, improving steering response and consistency lap after lap.

Compatible with Older RX Layouts

Made to match XRAY vintage RX series geometry, this tower installs into traditional chassis layouts and supports both restoration and competitive setups where repeatable suspension behaviour is important.
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.

How hard is it to fit the tower?

Fitting is generally simple for anyone familiar with vintage RX cars. Basic screwdrivers and an Allen set are usually all you need.

Can I paint or coat the graphite?

Graphite is best left uncoated for weight savings, but if cosmetically required use compatible paints and avoid strong solvents that can damage the surface.

Will this change front end feel?

Yes, expect a firmer front end with reduced flex. That can improve turn-in and consistency, though you may need to tweak spring rates and damping to match.

Do I need to modify other parts?

Most installations are direct fit. Check shock shaft length and mounting screws for clearance, but extensive modifications are rarely necessary.
