Yup I picked the stuff up from steve on the way home from work one day at wcrc. Don't remember where on the associated page the rear tower was but just called him and asked for all three. The holes are the same as the stock mudguards but I will be using the tekno v3-4 ones since they are made for a flat chassis like this one. Ran it a while Saturday and all I can say is wow! Always ran the battery all the way to the rear for super stability but always lacked a bit of steering. Went to battery forward and gained all the steering in the world but lost all the stability I loved so much. When I put this kit together I kinda split the differance and it works very well. The tekin 1400 also is a bit heavier than the 1512 so that helped out a bit with the rear weight. The new geometry really works well for my driving style, super easy to drive hard and the buggy stays very stable. Was a bit pricey to do but when I look at all that cf I forget all about the money.
