Can someone please supply me with a part number for the latest and lowest front shock tower for the evo2? I need a lower shock tower than the C-hub one so I can get my body lower. Right now its sitting on top of the shocks. I need to drop my body at least 1/8" if not a little more!!!
Thanks,
Ray

Use the Ultra tune shock tower:

it's about .25in lower than the stock C-hub tower.

That is actually the tower for running foams. Otherwise you need to run longer shocks in the front. I run this on myself, great when your tires are 58mm or less.

the lower shock tower has 4 shock mounting holes vs the 3 found on the C-hub tower...

Zombies, I agree. Ran the longer springs (rear) prior to this tower coming out. Would run out of negitave suspension travel w/o this tower 
~ 56mm or less.

guys,
Yup-I am almost out of threads on my front shocks now as my foam tires are starting to dip below 2.25"!!!!
I finshed the race day yesterday at 4.5mm ride height and 0.5 front droop on gauge. And-like I said-to achive 4.5mm-I am almost out of threads to tighten down the shock collars. But this is with the shorter AE Purple springs. I have the Xray springs coming.
Man-OH man do I need that front sway bar. When the traction came up-car was overly planted. I stood shocks up-but it wasnt enough.

the rear sway bars will work up front too.

Ray: Temp fix is to screw out the lower shock eyelet ~ 1mm 2 thread. This will give you enough more lenght with the longer springs to run the stock tower till you get the new. That is what I had to do.
