RC Model Shop stocks genuine Team Associated spare parts and upgrades, ensuring you receive authentic components engineered to Team Associated's exacting standards. This rear shock tower represents the kind of detailed, performance-focused upgrade that separates serious RC enthusiasts from casual users, offering measurable improvements in handling and suspension response when paired with appropriate shock absorbers.

Key Features

• Optional Tall Rear Shock Tower Design — This shock tower is engineered as an optional tall variant, meaning you can upgrade your existing B64 platform without replacing your entire chassis, giving you flexibility and cost-effectiveness in your RC setup.
• Woven Carbon Fibre Construction — The woven carbon fibre material provides an excellent balance of strength and lightweight performance, delivering superior rigidity compared to standard plastic or aluminium alternatives whilst maintaining minimal weight penalty, which improves acceleration and handling.
• Accommodates 31mm Shocks — Unlike standard shock towers, this tall variant is specifically designed to accept longer, higher-capacity 31mm shock absorbers, allowing you to run more sophisticated suspension geometry and fluid capacity for enhanced damping characteristics.
• Enhanced Suspension Compliance — The extended height combined with longer shocks enables significantly better suspension compliance on very bumpy or loose tracks, meaning your RC buggy maintains better tyre contact and traction when driving over rough terrain.
• Team Associated B64 Platform Compatibility — Engineered specifically for the RC10B64 and RC10B64D, this component integrates seamlessly with Team Associated's proven 1/10 scale buggy platform, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal performance characteristics.
• Proven Track Performance — Longer shocks with better compliance translate to improved cornering speed, reduced body roll, and more predictable handling characteristics, particularly valuable when competing or racing your RC buggy UK-wide on varied track surfaces.

Technical Performance

The Team Associated B64 Rear Shock Tower Woven Carbon Fibre Long represents sophisticated suspension engineering designed to extract maximum performance from your RC buggy. Constructed from woven carbon fibre, this component combines the strength necessary to withstand the stresses of competitive racing with the lightweight characteristics required for optimal acceleration and handling. The tall tower format is purpose-engineered to accommodate longer, higher-capacity 31mm shock absorbers, which provide substantially greater fluid volume and therefore improved damping consistency across varied track conditions. When equipped with appropriate 31mm shocks, this tower enables suspension compliance that transforms your B64's behaviour on bumpy, loose, or irregularly surfaced tracks. The woven carbon fibre construction ensures excellent torsional rigidity, preventing flex that would otherwise compromise handling precision and consistency. This is particularly important in competitive 1/10 scale buggy racing where suspension geometry directly influences cornering speed, acceleration control, and overall lap consistency. The engineering philosophy behind this optional upgrade reflects Team Associated's commitment to modular performance customisation, allowing drivers to progressively upgrade their vehicles as they develop their skills and demands. For serious RC car enthusiasts in the UK seeking to optimise their B64 platform's suspension characteristics, this shock tower delivers measurable performance improvements when paired with quality shock absorbers and properly tuned suspension settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will the B64 Rear Shock Tower fit my RC buggy immediately? — Yes, this shock tower is specifically engineered for Team Associated RC10B64 and RC10B64D platforms and integrates directly into your existing chassis with standard mounting points, though you will need 31mm shocks to complete the upgrade.
• What shock absorbers do I need with this tall tower? — This tower accommodates longer, higher-capacity 31mm shock absorbers, which are longer than standard shocks and provide greater fluid volume for improved damping and suspension compliance, particularly beneficial on rough tracks.
• Why is woven carbon fibre better than plastic or aluminium? — Woven carbon fibre offers superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to plastic, whilst providing greater flexibility and vibration dampening than rigid aluminium, resulting in better suspension responsiveness and longer component lifespan under racing stress.
• Is this upgrade suitable for track racing in the UK? — Absolutely, this is an optional upgrade specifically recommended for competitive racing environments, particularly on tracks featuring bumpy surfaces or loose terrain where suspension compliance directly influences lap times and consistency.
• How does this tower improve my RC buggy's performance? — The tall tower accommodates longer shocks that provide superior suspension compliance, meaning your tyres maintain better contact with irregular track surfaces, improving traction, reducing body roll, and enabling faster cornering speeds.
• Can I use this with my standard B64 shocks? — No, this tall tower is specifically designed for 31mm shocks and requires their use for proper fitment and performance; standard-length shocks will not provide adequate support or engagement with this tower design.
• Is this considered a competition-grade upgrade? — Yes, this optional shock tower upgrade is utilised by competitive RC buggy racers across the UK seeking to optimise suspension geometry and performance characteristics for race-winning advantage.
