I run the fioroni tower on the front buggy it's very beefy but hard to find. I would stay away from the cf towers. IMO
If anyone has difficulties finding the Fioroni towers, A Main has them in stock, and the ones they have are the 2.0 versions. Fioroni also has EU spec towers as well, Absolute Hobbyz will have them next week and A Main should have them soon too. According to Fioroni, the EU towers have the same shock and upper arm mounting holes as the standard towers + the extra EU mounting holes.
