James I was told by Andrew that they have used the truggy rear tower in buggy. But i have not tried it.

The problem with the truggy rear tower is the height is shorter than the carbon option which makes the rear buggy shocks unusable even with short ends. I used truggy front shocks with long ends and the truggy rear tower.

I had a rough start to my last race weekend and swapped the truck tower and shocks back to stock aluminum rear and long shocks to run out the weekend so you could say I struggled with the truck tower setup. I have some of the new PSM towers on the way to try out. May tinker with the truck tower some more if I get around to it. Hoping the PSMs work out. Also yes the stock front until PSM show up.

I ran the option rear carbon tower for a while, went back to the stock with the shocks all the way out and the car was better, i think the PSM or the carbon wider tower will help on tracks that are really bumpy though.
