JAZRIDER JR-RG812-BK Aluminium Rear Shock Towers - Technical Upgrade  [JR-RG812-BK]

Technical Overview of JAZRIDER Aluminium Rear Towers

The JAZRIDER JR-RG812-BK rear shock towers are designed as a direct replacement for the Redcat Gen8 rear mounts. Manufactured from aluminium, these towers provide improved stiffness at the shock tower interface, reducing deformation under load and maintaining consistent shock geometry during heavy use. They suit hobbyists who value practical, durable upgrades for regular trail and bash sessions.

Design Intent and Material Choice

Aluminium was selected to balance strength and weight. The component reduces the risk of cracked or warped mounting points that are common with stock plastic parts, while not introducing excessive mass that could negatively affect suspension response. The form factor keeps factory mounting locations intact to simplify fitment.

Fitment Notes and Workshop Advice

Installation follows the Gen8 factory pattern and requires standard hand tools. Torque fasteners to a controlled setting to avoid thread damage, and inspect fitment after initial runs. For consistent handling, pair these towers with matched suspension components and verify shock lengths and preload remain within recommended ranges.
