Description
Precision machined rear tower for JATO 4X4 VXL
The TJ030 rear shock tower is CNC machined from 7075-T6 aluminium to provide a high-strength, lightweight replacement for TRAXXAS JATO platforms. Its 3D streamlined CNC finish ensures consistent mating surfaces and improved stiffness at the rear suspension mount points on compatible JATO 4X4 VXL vehicles.
Package components are pre-assembled where noted and the kit includes Grade 12.9 black round head screws. The tower replaces factory part number 9034. For secure installation, the manufacturer recommends medium-strength threadlocker on fasteners to resist loosening under RC operating conditions.

Serve as a direct replacement for the listed JATO 4X4 VXL part numbers using the supplied Grade 12.9 screws, and apply medium-strength threadlocker during final assembly to maintain clamp integrity under dynamic loads.
What machining tolerances are targeted for the TJ030?
Manufactured to tight CNC tolerances to preserve factory mounting geometry; this supports repeatable alignment and consistent shock behavior across units.
Why choose 7075-T6 for this component?
7075-T6 offers a high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent fatigue resistance compared with common aluminium grades, making it suitable for suspension mounting hardware subject to repeated loads.
What hardware is supplied and why?
The kit includes Grade 12.9 black round head screws 3x14 to ensure high clamp force and reliable thread engagement with the aluminium tower under dynamic RC conditions.
Recommended assembly practice?
Use medium-strength threadlocker, torque fasteners evenly, and verify shock alignment after installation to avoid preload or binding that could affect suspension performance. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review.
