Graphite Upgrade for 1/8 GT Chassis

RC hobbyists aiming for sharper handling will appreciate the XRAY 353040 GT rear shock tower. Fabricated from 3.5mm premium graphite, this piece trims rotating and unsprung mass while keeping robust mounting points for demanding track use. The design includes several shock and roll centre positions so you can tailor the rear end to match different circuits and grip levels.

Engineered for Accurate Adjustment

The XRAY 353040 features precise hole placement to ensure repeatable setups and consistent suspension geometry. Graphite adds stiffness that helps the car react more predictably under braking and cornering loads. Try alternate shock mount combinations to dial in oversteer or understeer tendencies based on testing feedback.

Why Use 3.5mm Graphite

Using 3.5mm graphite keeps the component light without sacrificing structural integrity. Lighter parts can improve acceleration and turn-in, while graphite's resilience stands up to the stresses of on-track use when installed correctly. Simple care and inspection will maintain peak performance.
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.

Can I pair this with aftermarket shocks?

Yes, the tower accepts common shock eyelet spacing used on 1/8 GT cars, but confirm the shock length and mounting style match your chassis geometry before buying.

Will the tower reduce lap times?

Lighter, stiffer components can improve responsiveness and handling, which may translate to quicker lap times when combined with proper setup and driving.

Is fitting the XRAY 353040 difficult?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic RC maintenance. Use the correct fasteners and torque to avoid stress on the graphite.

Can I finish or customise the graphite surface?

Graphite does not always accept paint uniformly; if you plan cosmetic work, use surface prep designed for composite materials or stick to decals for a clean look.
