Hey Skiddins,
Maybe you tried this already... but something that is overlooked is that the shock tower can rotate slightly while tightening the 4 screws that hold the shock tower to the "upper clamps". Xray doesn't use countersunk holes so there is more chance for "shock tower tweak" or so I call it. It is also important which side the screws are on ( depending on which chassis it is ). On the Xray T2 and 3 the screws are on the back of the rear shock tower, and front of the front shock tower. So when tightening the screws it twists the two towers in opposite directions ( clock wise and counter clock wise ) ... compounding this diagonal "tweak". And of course, in a wreck, the shock tower could shift too... so I make sure they are tight once I get it right by using opposing force on each tower while tightening. Hope this helps solve it for you.

Cheers,

Jake D.
