Here are a couple shots of the towers.



 

They will be machined out of 7075 T6 aluminum.

They accept the Revo wing mount (Tekno fits also)

The center is open to allow access to a roto start and either the newer square, or the older type round body posts can be used.



 

With Tekno mount



 

With Revo mount.

Nice job on the tower.. Gives it a buggy look. Nice setup for a racer.

The power strokes will work.
They are designed with the stock shock locations in the same position as the stock towers, plus the higher locations for the 1/8th shocks.
I originally designed them for just the 1/8th shocks but later added the stock mounting locations.
You would just need to use 4 more standoffs (2 front – 2 rear). Those will be machined as well.

Hers one in the early stages.
A little more material has been removed to make it lighter and more shock mounting positions were added.
