Long time lurker here, but i did buy the shock tower and received it.

When I saw this offered for sale, I bought it so fast I didn't notice that there are only two holes for shock mounting positions. I thought I wasted my money, but the only hole that has been eliminated is the outer most hole. You still have the inner most hole and middle hole which is labeled #1 and #2 on the setup sheets.

The fit is excellent just like any other jconcepts part I have purchased. I have not run my car with this yet, so I can't comment on the durability.

I am curious to know the how the new ballstud location compares to the old. The jconcepts tower has the ballstud mounted horizontally(as opposed to vertically on the stock tower).
Is the lowest hole on the jconcepts tower = no washers under the ball stud on the stock tower?
I assume the middle hole on the jconcepts tower = one washer under the ball stud on the stock tower?
And the upper hole on the jconcepts tower = two washers under the ball stud on the stock tower?
