SpeedMerchant Lowered Shock Towers for Team Associated TC6

SpeedMerchant Lowered Shock Towers for Team Associated TC6

Here’s our new Associated TC6 Front and Rear Lowered Shock Towers. These towers are designed to fit the new style TC6 or 6.1 with the Vertical Ball Stud Bearing Caps/Bulkheads. Both towers have had the shock mounting positions lowered by 2mm.

On the Front Tower (Part# 6040) we removed the Inner most and outer most stock position mounting holes.

The Rear Tower (Part# 6041) has had the 2 outer most holes removed, but we have added 2 new Inner holes for mounting your shocks. The Rear Tower also has lowered the Rear Body Mount position by exactly 1 body clip hole, but the post is in the same location as the stock tower for a painless change over.

The Towers were lowered as much as possible while still being able to use the stock Associated springs. They give your sedan a lower CG, and by utilizing the new mounting positions on the Rear Tower, your TC6 will gain a ton of rotation. They are machined out of 2.5mm quasi-isotropic carbon fiber for superior rigidity and durability. They are up on-line today for sale to the public, so they will be legal for the upcoming R.O.A.R. Carpet Nationals in all sedan classes.
