RC car shock tower brace

A shock tower brace spans the two upper shock mounts and stops the towers flexing or snapping during hard landings. For a 1/10 scale buggy the brace is about 90 mm long, 8 mm wide and 5 mm thick with 3.2 mm holes at each end spaced to match the tower holes, plus a shallow arch in the middle to clear the body. PETG or carbon-filled nylon give the impact resistance PLA lacks, and a 1 mm fillet on every edge helps distribute stress.

Every chassis has a different hole spacing, so generating the brace with SpeakCAD means it fits the first time. Provide the distance between mounts and the clearance you need, adjust the thickness in the chat if your car is heavier, and preview at no cost in the browser.

Create a shock tower brace 90 mm long, 8 mm wide and 5 mm thick with 3.2 mm mounting holes at 82 mm centres, a 6 mm high arch over the central 40 mm, 1 mm fillets on all edges, and countersunk hole tops for M3 screws.

Change any number to match what you measured. The AI keeps the rest of the design consistent, and small follow-up edits after a download are free.
