Xtreme Racing Kyosho Lazer Thick Carbon Fiber Rear Shock Tower (4mm)

$23, snapped in half within 5min of install on a brushed 2s/LVDxl5/12t motor/24t pinion titan lazer. I wasnt going fast BUT landed on it because the nose was in the air. It snapped AT THE WING MOUNTS! Not the at the diff case standoff mounts like the stock towers. I was pretty mad, it took out both shock caps too. I have all of the aluminum upgrades so the tower was bolted to the car very firmly, the Xtreme just has a weak spot at the wing mounts. If the wing mount holes could be eliminated and the big hole in the middle I bet it would be a lot stronger. I hope the front tower holds up better. I think it will because I dont see any weak spots for it to break and it is mounted to an all alum strong front end. Maybe if I my TBR front and rear bumpers had gotten here in time I wouldve landed on the bumper instead of the tower? For now Im going to run stock with TBR bumpers and see what happens.

both shock towers and upper deck is a very good upgrade, wont regret it ever,
