i can also vouch for the carbon towers, ran them for over a year on my FTRC8 and they never flinched in the 300 or so races they ran. more exposed on a buggy so a truggy should have no problem, and about 30g lighter each over the alum. try a plastic spur too if you dont have one already. only ones that ive seen last are the kyosho, again plastic was 8g steel was 32g. have all the alum. diff cups and stub axles but they are a little more expensive.
