Overview
The Traxxas Shock towers, front & rear TRX9338 are essential replacement and upgrade components for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand the highest performance from their RC models. Whether you're a competitive racer, weekend basher, or dedicated RC car UK hobbyist, shock towers are critical structural components that support your vehicle's suspension system and ensure optimal handling characteristics. These genuine Traxxas parts are engineered to exacting standards to provide the durability and precision fit that RC drivers expect when upgrading or maintaining their ready to run RC vehicles.
Shock towers form the mounting points for your shock absorbers and suspension links, making them fundamental to your RC car's geometry, handling balance, and overall performance. When competing in challenging terrain or pushing your vehicle to its limits, quality shock towers ensure that your suspension geometry remains true and your shocks remain perfectly positioned. The front and rear configuration included in this product means you're getting a comprehensive suspension upgrade solution, allowing you to refresh both ends of your RC model simultaneously for consistent performance throughout your chassis.
As an authorised Traxxas retailer, RC Model Shop stocks genuine TRX9338 shock towers that guarantee compatibility with your Traxxas RC vehicle. Whether you've damaged your existing towers through intense racing, normal wear and tear, or simply want to upgrade to fresh components as part of a complete suspension refresh, this is the professional-grade solution trusted by RC enthusiasts across the UK who refuse to compromise on quality or performance.

- Suspension Geometry Support — Shock towers maintain proper suspension alignment and geometry, which is critical for consistent handling, predictable steering response, and optimised weight transfer during cornering, acceleration and braking.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Shock towers TRX9338 represent precision engineering that directly impacts your RC vehicle's handling dynamics and durability under demanding conditions. As critical suspension components, shock towers must withstand significant forces during aggressive driving, jumps, high-speed cornering, and obstacle navigation. Traxxas manufactures these towers using robust materials selected for their strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring that your suspension remains rigid and geometrically stable without adding unnecessary mass to your chassis. The engineering behind these components reflects decades of Traxxas expertise in RC vehicle design and racing applications. These towers maintain precise mounting points for shock absorbers, suspension links, and anti-roll bar connections, meaning that even minor variations in tower geometry can noticeably affect your vehicle's handling balance, steering response, and overall performance on the track or trail. Front and rear towers have different geometry specifications optimised for their respective suspension requirements, and this product provides both, allowing you to achieve symmetrical handling improvements across your entire RC model.
