Key Features
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — This shock tower is manufactured from 6061-T6 grade aluminium, which is one of the strongest and most reliable aluminium alloys used in precision engineering applications. This material provides the perfect balance between weight savings and structural strength, ensuring your shock tower won't flex or bend under the stresses of aggressive driving.
- Hard Anodised Finish — The component features a hard anodised black surface treatment that not only looks professional and aggressive but also provides superior protection against corrosion, scratches, and the wear and tear that comes with regular RC use. This protective coating ensures your investment maintains its appearance and functionality for years to come.
- CNC-Machined Precision — Every shock tower is manufactured using computer numerically controlled (CNC) machining processes, guaranteeing exact tolerances and perfect fit every single time. This level of precision manufacturing means zero compatibility issues when installing onto your Corally Kagama XP 6S brushless RC truck.
- 5mm Thickness Specification — The 5mm thickness provides the optimal balance between strength and weight, offering significantly more rigidity than standard plastic components whilst keeping your RC truck's weight distribution ideal for handling and performance.
- Front Position Design — Specifically engineered for the front of your MT-G2 platform truck, this shock tower handles all the suspension loading and impacts associated with aggressive cornering, jumps, and rough terrain driving that RC truck enthusiasts love.
- Single Piece Configuration — This one-piece design eliminates weak points and joint failures, ensuring absolute structural integrity where it matters most for your RC's suspension performance.
Technical Performance
The Team Corally Shock Tower MT-G2 represents the pinnacle of RC truck component engineering for medium-scale 1/10 bashers and racers across the UK. Manufactured from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium and finished with hard anodising for lasting durability, this component delivers the kind of structural integrity that separates amateur RC setups from professionally-tuned machines. The five-millimetre thickness provides substantial reinforcement compared to standard plastic shock towers whilst maintaining the lightweight profile essential for optimal RC truck handling. Every unit is precision CNC-machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring flawless compatibility with all variants of the Corally Kagama XP 6S brushless RC truck platform, regardless of whether you own a roller truck, an RTR model, or a performance-tuned version. The hard anodised black finish doesn't just look aggressive and professional – it actively resists corrosion from moisture, salt, and caustic environments, making this component ideal for bashers who drive in varied UK weather conditions. This is the kind of upgrade that serious RC car UK competitors have long understood – investing in premium aluminium chassis and suspension components dramatically improves reliability, consistency, and ultimately performance on the track or trail.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a shock tower and why would I upgrade to an aluminium version? — A shock tower is a critical structural component that connects your RC truck's suspension system to the main chassis. Factory plastic shock towers work well initially, but under heavy use from aggressive driving, off-road bashing, or racing, they can flex, crack, or break. By upgrading to this premium 6061-T6 aluminium version with its hard anodised finish, you gain substantially increased rigidity, which improves suspension response, handling predictability, and overall driving consistency. Aluminium shock towers also last significantly longer than plastic, making this upgrade an excellent investment for anyone serious about RC truck performance.
- Is this shock tower suitable for beginners? — Whilst this is absolutely a genuine performance upgrade that beginners will benefit from, it's primarily aimed at intermediate and advanced RC enthusiasts who understand the value of premium components. That said, if you're purchasing a Corally Kagama XP 6S brushless RC truck as a beginner and want it to last through seasons of hard use, this is an excellent choice for future-proofing your investment. The installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance knowledge.
- Will this shock tower fit my Corally Kagama XP 6S RTR brushless truck immediately? — Yes, absolutely. This is a precision CNC-machined component that's engineered specifically for MT-G2 platform Corally Kagama models. Whether you own an RTR (Ready to Run) version or a roller truck, this front shock tower will install with perfect fit and alignment, thanks to the exact tolerances maintained during manufacturing.
- What is hard anodising and why is it important? — Hard anodising is an electrochemical process that creates an extremely dense protective oxide coating on the aluminium surface. This coating is substantially harder and more durable than standard anodising, providing superior resistance to corrosion, scratches, abrasion, and environmental damage. For RC enthusiasts in the UK who drive in various weather conditions – rain, mud, salt spray near coastal areas – hard anodising ensures your shock tower maintains its appearance and functionality for many years of use.
- Can I use this on other RC truck brands? — No, this shock tower is specifically engineered for the Corally Kagama XP 6S platform. Using it on other brands or platforms would not result in proper fit or alignment. Always verify compatibility before purchasing upgrade components for your RC truck.
- How does CNC machining ensure quality? — CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) machining uses computer-controlled precision tools to shape components to exact specifications repeatedly and consistently. Every single shock tower that comes out of Team Corally's production facility will be dimensionally identical to the next, meaning perfect compatibility, zero fitment issues, and guaranteed performance. This manufacturing method eliminates human error and variability, ensuring you receive a component of absolute professional quality.
