Refine SO3.0 Chassis Dynamics with the SO-017

The Yokomo SO-017 Graphite Front Shock Tower is aimed at pilots looking to tighten front end control on an SO3.0 chassis. Made from resilient graphite, the tower provides a reliable mounting point that helps the suspension perform more predictably under braking and corner loads.

Why Graphite Works Well on the Track

Graphite delivers a favourable strength to weight ratio that many racers prefer for precision parts. The SO-017 leverages that balance to reduce unwanted flex and keep steering consistent throughout a race program.

Accurate Fitment for Easy Installation

Specifically shaped for the SO3.0, the Yokomo SO-017 ensures correct alignment with existing shock and chassis mounts. That accuracy reduces setup time and preserves the intended suspension geometry.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo 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 use the SO-017 with aftermarket shock mounts?

You can pair the SO-017 with many aftermarket mounts, but confirm hole spacing and clearance before fitting to avoid interference with shocks or linkages.

Does graphite change crash behavior compared to plastic?

Graphite tends to be stiffer and may transmit more force to nearby parts; this improves precision but means you should check adjacent components after impacts.

Is any special hardware required to mount the SO-017?

The SO-017 is designed to work with the SO3.0 stock mounting hardware. Replace worn screws if they show thread damage to maintain secure clamping.
