JAZRIDER JR-TA105-DB Rear Shock Tower Technical Summary

The JAZRIDER JR-TA105-DB is a machined aluminium rear shock tower designed to replace the original plastic part on Tamiya TA01, TA02 and DF01 platforms. Its construction offers a consistent, rigid mounting surface for rear dampers, helping to stabilise suspension geometry under load.

Fitment and Functional Notes

Manufactured to match Tamiya rear mount locations, the JR-TA105-DB installs as a direct replacement. Expect reduced torsional compliance at the shock mounts and improved durability compared with stock plastic units. This change can make chassis behaviour more predictable, especially on rough tracks.

Practical Installation Guidance

Install by removing the factory tower and fitting the JAZRIDER aluminium unit with the original hardware. Tighten fasteners evenly and verify shock piston alignment and travel. Inspect mounting screws periodically and apply a light thread locker to metal-to-metal joints for secure operation.

What chassis does JR-TA105-DB support?

Designed for Tamiya TA01, TA02 and DF01. The hole pattern and spacing follow the factory layout for these models.

Will the aluminium affect shock tuning recommendations?

Because the tower reduces local flex, drivers may notice a firmer response. Reassess spring rates and damper damping to match the new stiffness for optimal balance.

Maintenance considerations for JR-TA105-DB?

Regularly check fastener torque and clearances. Clean debris from mounting faces and inspect for thread wear; replace screws if heads or threads show damage.
