SP REAR SHOCK TWR
Has anyone of you tried the SP rear shock tower (VZW 207)? What is the diffence in handling did you notice? From what I can see it has got blue anodized rear bearing cover comes together with it, and the rear inner camber link pivot ball sits upwards instead of towards the front, and it has got 3 holes instead of 5 holes(EVO). Is this better? And what is the effect of having 2mm spacer under the pivot ball?

I would strongly suggest using only 2mm of rear droop.

Similar to how the (original) Hpi Pro 4 shock caps are drilled to allow the shocks to self-bleed to give you perfect dampening every time you build them.
