Default NTC3 shock tower version 2 question

Hi guys,

I have an NTC3 RTR (not plus). Recently I bought NTC3 Plus body. When fitting it I found out that
holes for rear posts are moved. I am thinking of buying a rear shock tower version 2. Is it going to solve my
problem? Can I use this tower on old car version without other version 2 parts?

The other solution to drill new holes.

Thanks in advance,
Igor

I have a plus with the V2...and I know the body did not fit my brother in laws Electric Tc3. The rear mounts are different. If the Electric runs the V1...than I would say NO.

Ummmm, joe. The electric bodies are a completely differant size body... right? So that could've been your problem. But since you fixed it, have fun with it. - Justin

I just went to my LHS and checked the rear tower v2. I couldn't use it.

On the v2, the rear body posts have been moved behind the shock tower.

As gosha said, all you need to do is drill the v1's and flip the posts.

Yes..they are 190 wide vs nitro at 200mm. The length is the same. the holes should be the same..right? We were just messing arroud at a BBQ...my brother in law just finnished the build and wanted to run...we tried my body just to give it some down force...
