    Thank you for mentioning the pan hard bar adjustment. My steering was off, and your tutorial had it all make sense. Thanks!

    The Tr@xxas shock towers are actually lighter with optimal positioning. In comps, we like to keep it simple. Simple means light.

    “Optimal” is subjective. What you think is the best way isn’t always the best way for everyone.

    Hey guys - just noticed....if you adjusted those front body post mounts more forward - you could've mounted the body properly to fit - ie....1/2 inch forward or so to be flush with the front bumper. In your testing video, you can see that the rear wheel is too far forward in the wheel arch. I have used these shock towers in my TRX4 and body fits as oem :)

    Your unwanted steering flex is coming from the pan-hard link at the axle also - this won't eliminate it until you get an alloy lower axle pan-hard link. I have this and steering is rock solid now.....still dreaded 'bump-steer' with all CMS steering setups. I'm going servo on axle mount soon.
