Traxxas Slash Rear Shock Tower

thingiverse

My shock tower broke so while a new part was shipping I decided to take up the challenge of creating a 3d printed one. I couldn't find a way to design it to avoid supports, so you will have to print with supports. Excuse the horrible print quality, I didn't really tweak the printer before this but now they're looking a lot better. This has been tested and works on the Traxxas Slash 2wd, unsure if it is also compatible with the 4wd version. If you test it and it works let me know so I can update this. Never bashed the car too crazily with this so unsure how it would hold up to that. Print Info: I assume the more infill the stronger it will be, but I personally recommend staying above 30%, and even better would to do variable infill to 100% around screws and some important areas like the lower section where the camber adjustment is and main mounting points to body since those were the main failure points when I was reiterating the design. Also highly recommend reinforcing the area where the shocks connect to because those obviously take most of the force when the car moves around.
