Barnes 4wd Shock Towers​



Barnes 4WD Frame shock towers are great way to get your Air shocks, Coilovers or ORI struts out boarded and mounted to your frame. These shock towers are made from ¼” steel. Sure we could have made them out of 3/16” and saved some money but we did not feel that would withstand the abuse that rigs are now seeing. These Shock towers measure 14” to the top of the frame and can easily be shortened so you can mount them in just the right height for your shock length and ride height. Our design allows you to weld in the shock tabs for a double shear mount at you desired shock mounting width. For any additionally needed strength you can our large gusset to each side of the shock tower. Most customers find that our Bent Axle Shock Bracket is the best fit for this shock tower. These shock towers are sold in pairs.

We offer two different types of shock towers, Frenched and Frame. Both are made from 1/4" American made steel, and sold in pairs!

We recently redesigned both our shock towers to add a cutout at the top for the shock fitting. Here is what they both look like now:
