RDRP RB6 front and rear shock towers

RDRP RB6 front and rear shock towers

New from Revolution Design come front and rear carbon fibre shock towers for the Kyosho RB6 buggy. The front shock tower is CNC-machined from 4mm high-quality carbon fibre and a direct replacement for the stock part, mimicking the original shock geometry allowing to use it as drop fit solution. Beside being of a lightweight design the part also add a cool technical look to Kyosho’s World Championship winning buggy. The rear shock tower is specially designed for the use with mid motor converted cars and it comes as set including a precision machined aluminium adapter plate to resemble the original part thickness in the rear bulkhead and wing mount area. Just like the front damper stay the rear shock tower is modelled after the kit’s suspension geometry and made to create a stiffer and more precise base for the shocks. Both the front and rear shock tower are sold separately and they are available now.
