I like the shock tower. Totally different and grown on me once it's on there.

That's looking great. So no shims were needed for that rear tower?

I hadn't really noticed before, but I really like the chassis color.

it should have one. i need to measure it up to see what thickness it'll have to be. just eyeballing it, might be around .015.

just so everyone knows what we're talking about.....

the rear tower on a t2 is 1/8" thick. it gets sandwiched between the bulkhead and the trans case at the bottom. the cf is slightly thinner than the fiberglass tower, so a shim is needed to take up the space.

little update......

i just scored a full set of ft b44 v2 shocks for the runner. super happy with the price.

one reason i wanted the rear tower to accept 1.18's.

Any updates to this project?

Post by **scr8p** » Fri Jul 13, 2012 9:27 am

nah, not really. i haven't had much quality r/c time lately. but, the new front arms are cut and that step was holding it up a bit.
