Key Features
- Precision Aluminium Construction — The shock mounts are manufactured from aluminium, which offers superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to plastic alternatives, ensuring your suspension geometry remains true under aggressive driving while minimising unnecessary weight that could affect handling and speed.
- Set of Four Mounts — This package includes all four upper shock mounts needed to fully service the suspension system on your Mini LMT, eliminating the need to purchase multiple items or hunt for individual parts across different suppliers.
- OEM Quality Fitment — As an official Team Losi Racing replacement part, these mounts are engineered to OEM specifications and will fit perfectly on your Mini LMT without modification, ensuring proper suspension alignment and performance.
- Black Finish — The professional black powder-coated finish not only looks great but also provides protection against corrosion and UV damage, helping your replacement parts maintain their appearance and functionality for years to come.
- Essential Maintenance Component — The upper shock mount is a critical structural element in your truck's suspension system, and having quality replacement mounts ensures consistent dampening characteristics and prevents chassis flex that could compromise handling.
Technical Performance
The TLR Aluminium Upper Shock Mount represents the kind of engineering precision that distinguishes Team Losi Racing products in the UK RC truck market. Manufactured from high-grade aluminium, these mounts provide the rigidity necessary to maintain precise suspension geometry during intense driving sessions. The Mini LMT is a 1/8 scale platform that demands components capable of withstanding considerable lateral and vertical loads, and the aluminium construction of these mounts ensures they will maintain their shape and alignment even when subjected to the extreme forces generated by aggressive cornering, jumps and high-speed runs. The four-piece set provides complete coverage of the suspension mounting points, allowing you to refresh your entire upper shock mount assembly if needed. The black finish is applied through precision coating methods that provide both aesthetic appeal and functional protection against dirt, moisture and UV exposure. These mounts work in conjunction with your Mini LMT's shock absorbers and springs to create a suspension system capable of absorbing impacts while maintaining consistent ride height and maintaining the vehicle's handling characteristics across varied terrain and track conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these shock mounts compatible with the Mini LMT? — Yes, these mounts are manufactured by Team Losi Racing specifically for the Mini LMT and will fit perfectly on your vehicle without any modification or adaptation required.

They are designed to maintain precise suspension alignment, which is essential for consistent handling.
- Are these parts difficult to install? — Installation requires basic RC knowledge and tools. The mounts attach to your Mini LMT's suspension system and should be installed according to the vehicle's manual to ensure proper alignment and fitment.
