Material and construction details

This tower is precision CNC machined from a solid block of 6061 aluminum, then anodized in blue. The hardening process increases strength while keeping weight low, making it a popular upgrade over the plastic stock part. Atomik RC also offers this part in red and gunmetal finishes, so you can match your rig's color scheme.

Key specifications

How easy is it to install?

Because it matches the factory specifications, installation is straightforward. Remove the four screws securing the stock shock tower (part 6839), lift it off, place the Atomik tower in position, and reinstall the screws. No special tools or alignment tricks are required.

Frequently asked questions

Will this fit a Traxxas Slash 2WD?

Yes. The compatibility list includes the Traxxas 1/10 Slash, which is the 2WD version. So it will fit the standard Slash as well as the 4X4.

What colors are available?

Atomik RC makes this shock tower in blue, red, and gunmetal. The one described here is blue.

Is this part stronger than the stock plastic one?

6061 aluminum is significantly more rigid and less prone to flexing than the plastic factory part. It should hold up better under hard landings and aggressive driving, though individual results vary based on use.

Does it come with mounting hardware?

The product details do not mention included hardware. You may need to reuse the screws from your original part.

This Atomik RC alloy front shock tower is a direct, bolt-on upgrade for several popular Traxxas 1/10 off-road vehicles. Its anodized blue finish and CNC precision make it both a functional and cosmetic improvement over the stock component.
