Ordered flishrc cobra. Communication was great. Ordered larger batteries but they were the wrong size. Olly shipped the right batteries and gave a refund for the difference I paid. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks for the help with the order.

The seller knew I was after one and very kindly informed me when they came back into stock so now have a Flywing Bell 206. Fantastic bit of kit. Well worth the wait.

About this product
Front Shock Tower Fitment for Mini Kraton 3S
This front shock tower serves as an RC-scale replacement for ARRMA 1/16 Mini Kraton 3S vehicles. CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminium, it provides a stiffer mounting point for the front suspension and replaces factory part ARA-2664 while keeping the chassis layout intact.
Designed with multiple shock mounting holes, it allows swapping shock angles and leverage to suit different surfaces and driver preferences. Changing mounting holes will shift front response and the tuning envelope for carpet or loose dirt tracks.
Hardware is supplied pre-assembled where applicable. It is advisable to apply a medium-strength screw thread locker on metal fasteners to prevent loosening under vibration. The package contains one front shock tower ready for installation.
Compatible Models
- ARRMA 1/16 Mini Kraton 3S DSC 4X4 RTR Brushless Speed Truck-ARA2508S
- ARRMA 1/16 Mini Kraton 3S DSC 4X4 RTR Brushless Speed Truck-ARA2508
Fit this tower to strengthen the front shock mounting and extend setup options; confirm torque values and use a medium-strength thread locker on metal-to-metal fasteners during fitting.
Does MAKM028 replace the OEM ARA-2664 without extra mods?
Yes. MAKM028 is intended as a direct replacement for the original ARA-2664 and installs without altering the existing chassis geometry.
Is aluminium the recommended upgrade material for durability?
Aluminium, especially 7075-T6, is commonly used for upgrades where increased strength and reduced flex are desired compared to stock plastic towers.
Will supplied hardware be sufficient for installation?
Supplied hardware should be sufficient; ensure all bolts are tightened to spec and use a medium-strength thread locker on metal fasteners to help prevent loosening.
How should I approach tuning after fitting the tower?
After fitting, experiment with the different shock mounting holes to find a balance between turn-in and stability; small incremental changes to shock position can yield useful improvements. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review.
