Overview
The TEAM CORALLY SHOCK TOWER KAGAMA REAR is a premium upgrade component designed for serious RC enthusiasts running the Corally Kagama XP 6S brushless RC truck. This Swiss-engineered shock tower represents the pinnacle of precision manufacturing and material science, crafted to withstand the demands of high-performance off-road racing. Whether you're a competitive racer looking to optimise your RC car setup or an experienced basher pushing your vehicle to its limits on challenging terrain, this rear shock tower delivers the durability and performance enhancement your TC Kagama demands.
Built from aerospace-grade 7075 T6 aluminium and meticulously machined in Italy, this component is far more than a simple replacement part—it's an investment in your RC car's longevity and handling characteristics. The hard anodised black finish provides both aesthetic appeal and functional protection, whilst the precision CNC machining ensures perfect fitment and alignment with your existing chassis. For RC enthusiasts in the UK seeking quality upgrades that genuinely improve their vehicle's performance, this Corally shock tower stands out as a recognised component that elevates your RC experience.
Every detail has been engineered with the RC racer in mind. The strategic lightweight design trims excess material without compromising structural integrity, resulting in a more agile and responsive truck that handles better on the track. Combined with the legendary Italian craftsmanship heritage that Corally brings to the hobby, this shock tower represents genuine value for those who refuse to compromise on quality.
Key Features
- 7075 T6 Aluminium Construction — This premium aerospace-grade aluminium alloy is renowned throughout the RC and motorsport industries for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resilience, meaning your shock tower will withstand punishing terrain, high-speed impacts, and repeated stress cycles without bending or failing where inferior materials would crack or deform.
- Hard Anodised Surface Treatment — The hard anodisation process creates a protective oxide layer that dramatically increases durability, corrosion resistance, and wear characteristics, whilst imparting a professional sleek black finish that resists scratches and maintains its appearance through countless racing sessions and rough handling.
- Precision CNC Machining — Every contour, mounting hole, and suspension attachment point is engineered to exacting tolerances through computer numerical control machining, guaranteeing seamless fitment with your TC Kagama XP 6S chassis and optimising suspension geometry for improved handling and stability.
- Strategic Lightweight Design — The shock tower features carefully calculated material removal that reduces unsprung weight whilst preserving the structural integrity required for reliability, resulting in a more agile and responsive vehicle that accelerates faster, handles corners with greater precision, and enhances overall track performance.
- Italian Craftsmanship — Manufactured in Italy with meticulous attention to engineering excellence and design, this component embodies a tradition of precision engineering that has made Italian RC manufacturers world-renowned for quality and reliability.
- Perfect Compatibility — Designed specifically for the Corally Kagama XP 6S range, this rear shock tower integrates seamlessly with your existing setup, whether you're running the brushless RTR model or a roller chassis configuration.
Technical Performance
The rear shock tower is manufactured from 6mm thick 7075 T6 aluminium, a material specification that ensures exceptional rigidity whilst maintaining a lightweight profile crucial for RC truck performance. The thickness of 6mm provides the ideal balance between durability and weight reduction—substantial enough to prevent flex under load during cornering and jumps, yet optimised to keep unsprung weight to a minimum. The hard anodisation process adds significant durability beyond the material's natural properties, creating a surface hardness that resists the wear and tear of constant track use, exposure to dirt and moisture, and the abrasive contact with track surfaces. This treatment is particularly important for RC vehicles used in the UK's variable climate conditions where moisture and salt air can accelerate corrosion on untreated aluminium components. The precision CNC machining ensures that every aspect of the shock tower's geometry is perfectly executed, with mounting points that align precisely with the TC Kagama XP 6S chassis, eliminating the suspension geometry issues that can arise from poorly manufactured alternatives. The strategic lightening design reduces rotational mass around the suspension mounting points, improving the vehicle's responsiveness to driver inputs and enabling faster corner entry and exit speeds. For users of the Kagama XP 6S brushless truck, this upgraded rear shock tower transforms the vehicle's handling characteristics by providing a more rigidly connected rear suspension system that translates steering inputs more directly to the wheels.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Corally Kagama rear shock tower suitable for both racing and bashing? — Yes, absolutely. Whilst the precision engineering and lightweight design make it ideal for competitive racing applications where every performance advantage matters, the exceptional durability of 7075 T6 aluminium with hard anodisation makes it equally suited to aggressive bashing and off-road use, where impact resistance and longevity are essential requirements.
- What makes this shock tower different from standard replacement parts? — This is an upgraded tuning component rather than a basic OEM replacement. The 6mm thickness, premium 7075 T6 aluminium, hard anodisation, and precision CNC machining are specifications that exceed many standard parts, whilst the strategic lightweight design optimises performance in ways that standard parts do not address.
- Will this shock tower improve my TC Kagama's handling? — Yes, the rigid construction and precise CNC machining eliminate flex and alignment issues that can affect suspension performance, whilst the lightweight design reduces unsprung mass, resulting in improved responsiveness, faster cornering speeds, and better overall vehicle control on the track or trail.
- Is this compatible with all Kagama models? — This rear shock tower is designed specifically for the Corally Kagama XP 6S and is listed as compatible with the following models: C-00274-G (Kagama XP 6S Brushless Truck RTR Green), C-00274-R (Kagama XP 6S Brushless Truck RTR Red), C-00274-B (Kagama XP 6S Brushless Truck RTR Blue), C-00474-R (Kagama XP 6S Roller Truck Red), C-00474-B (Kagama XP 6S Roller Truck Blue), and C-00474-G (Kagama XP 6S Roller Truck Green).
- Why is the hard anodisation process important? — Hard anodisation creates a protective crystalline oxide layer that significantly increases surface hardness and corrosion resistance compared to standard anodising or bare aluminium, essential for RC vehicles exposed to moisture, dirt, salt air, and constant abrasion from track use in the UK climate.
- What tools do I need to install this shock tower? — Installation requires basic RC tools including hex keys matching your TC Kagama's fastener sizes, though specific tool requirements depend on your existing setup and whether you're replacing an existing shock tower or upgrading from the standard component.
