+1 the aluminum towers are not needed. I ran the mbx6 in the past and it had carbon towers and I never broke one. Look at it this way. If you break the carbon tower than more than likely thats all that will break. If you bend the aluminum one badly, then more than likely you will have to replace the diff case
