no matter how many times you buy Tamiya A parts, the front shock tower will continue to break so gather all those spare gearcases (they will take a bit of impact as shock is transfered through the metal to the plastic) you accumilated buying a parts for the shock towers as they will sometimes break when using this part but alot less compared to replacing plastic shock towers. I think yeah racing or 3 racing should make a redesigned gearcase/shock tower hopup so that tyhe durability of the df02 is increased.

The front shock tower of DF-02 is definately one of the weakest part of DF-02 chassis. The YR Front Shock Tower is definately a must have hop up part. It strengthen the shock tower. Unfortunately it also introduces new problem to your car. Instead of the shock tower being the first thing to break, the forces from crashes is now transferred somewhere else. If you've spent a lot of money buying DF-02 "A tree" to replace all the broken shock towers like me, having this surely helps a bit. Since it's an alloy, it meant that instead of smashing the shock tower to bits, the part bends, which means you can mend it easily, instead of replacing the entire unit. However, because it is an allow, which makes it stronger, the force from your shunts will be transfered to your chassis especially your gear cover. I do recommend using a longer screw may be a 12mm or a 15mm screw instead of the 10mm screw provided. And upgrade your dampers and shocks. Overall, I this part is worth getting not only that it works, it also adds blink factor to your car.

this part is one of the most important upgrades you can install to the df-02. From the first time you brake the stock one you must change it with this, so you don't have to buy again and again the plastic one from Tamiya. As for the part itself , it gives something more than looks to the buggy. It made the buggy rigged and tough but i recommend that you buy also the rear shock tower also because it is the one that receives the most blows when you crash.

This tower not only looks awsome but is more adjustable than the stock tower. The fit is perfect onto the mounting bracket but be warned that this tower is stronger than the original. The added strength is only a downside in the event of a big crash as the the possibility of breaking the mount exists. Combine this tower with some alloy dampers and you have one pimpy df-02.

i first broke my plastic shock tower so i got this metal one. the new metal one is very good at the base but the parts that come off the top tend to break off if you ether screw it in too much of you like to send your car off of jumps and have stiff shocks... therefore i put the long screws from a new shock tower into the top and now it works very well
