Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas Mini XRT models is this shock tower compatible with? — The Traxxas Shock tower, front TRX10746 is compatible with all colour variants of the Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S, including the green (TRX108076-1-GRN), orange (TRX108076-1-ORNG), red (TRX108076-1-RED), and blue (TRX108076-1-BLUE) models. If you own any of these Mini XRT variants, this shock tower will fit perfectly and maintain the same suspension geometry as the original component.
- When would I need to replace the front shock tower on my Mini XRT? — The shock tower should be replaced if it becomes damaged, cracked, or bent from impacts or crashes. Signs of damage include misaligned suspension geometry, uneven handling characteristics, or visible cracks in the component. Having a spare shock tower on hand means you can quickly get back to racing or bashing without waiting for repairs.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, this is an excellent spare component for beginners to keep on hand. While installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and tools, replacing a shock tower is a straightforward repair that helps beginners learn essential RC maintenance skills. Having genuine OEM Traxxas parts ensures proper fitment and eliminates compatibility concerns.
- What is the difference between this and the rear shock tower? — The front and rear shock towers are designed with different geometries to match the specific suspension layout of the Mini XRT chassis. The front shock tower (TRX10746) is engineered specifically for the front suspension, whilst the rear shock tower (TRX10744) is designed for rear suspension mounting. You cannot interchange them, so it's important to order the correct component for your repair needs.
- Do I need any additional parts to install this shock tower? — This is a shock tower component only. Depending on the extent of damage to your existing assembly, you may need additional suspension components such as shocks, shock mounts, or other chassis parts, but the shock tower itself is all you need for a direct replacement.
