Technical Performance
The Corally Shock Tower XTR MTL Rear represents cutting-edge RC chassis engineering. Constructed from 7075-T6 aluminium — the same material specification used in aerospace applications — this component is designed to withstand the intense stresses imposed by high-performance RC racing. The CNC-machining process creates precision tolerances that ensure perfect fitment to your chassis, whilst the hard anodised finish provides a protective layer that resists corrosion, scuffing, and the wear that accumulates during competitive driving. At 5mm thickness, this shock tower provides exceptional rigidity without unnecessary weight penalty — a critical consideration for anyone serious about RC car performance. Whether you're pushing your XTR or MTL through tight racing circuits or aggressive bashing sessions, this rear shock tower delivers the structural integrity and precision engineering that separates truly competitive builds from standard setups. The black finish is both aesthetically professional and practical, showing minimal dust and dirt whilst maintaining excellent visibility of the suspension geometry during setup adjustments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Corally models does this shock tower fit? — This rear shock tower is specifically designed for the Corally Kronos XTR 2021, Shogun 2022, Kronos 2022, and Muraco 2022 platforms, as well as other Corally vehicles in the XTR and MTL range. Always verify your specific model against the compatibility list before ordering to ensure perfect fitment.
- Is this shock tower suitable for competitive racing? — Absolutely. This is a genuine tuning part engineered to competition specifications using premium 7075-T6 aluminium and precision CNC machining. If you're racing your Corally in the UK RC scene, this represents a genuine performance upgrade that competitive racers routinely install.
- What does hard anodising do? — Hard anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface. This layer provides superior corrosion resistance, protects against scuffing and wear, and significantly extends the lifespan of your component, particularly important for racing use.
- Why is 7075-T6 aluminium better than other materials? — 7075-T6 is among the strongest aluminium alloys available and is commonly used in aerospace and motorsport applications. It offers exceptional strength combined with relatively low weight, making it ideal for precision RC components where both durability and performance matter.
- Do I need special tools to install this shock tower? — Installation requires standard RC tools and basic mechanical knowledge. You'll need appropriate screwdrivers and possibly hex keys depending on your chassis design. Consult your Corally vehicle manual for specific installation procedures and torque specifications.
- Can this be used as a direct replacement for plastic shock towers? — Yes, this aluminium shock tower is designed as a direct replacement for the original plastic component on compatible Corally models, providing a significant upgrade in durability and rigidity whilst maintaining fitment compatibility.
