I have a FLM question to. :p

For $24 (I think?), do you get both shock towers? I would assume so since theres a difference from the front and back, but that seems almost to good to be true...

Im fairly certain I paid $24 each when I got mine back along (and then went with the G3.3 towers anyway). The new ones take 3.3spec body posts dont they?...

I'll find out if they do take 3.3 post in a few days. I'm making a big order of FLM parts for my FLM maxx.

That does about right. I guess you get one of each when you order 2...Or do both the front and rear have the wing mounts built in? I'm fairly certain there are two different towers.

Hmm, when I ordered mine, both had the same wing mounting holes in them- guess its easier & cheaper to use a universal design, rather than make a seperate tower for front & rear?...

The front and rear towers are the very same; no differenes. Both come with the wing mount holes. The ones you get from Mike use the square body posts too. The square body posts limit your shock setup options.They stick out out of the tower. With 4 shock or 8 stock shocks this is allmost no issue, but with proline bigbores (who don't work with 3.3 shafts anyway) and UE shocks you can get into trouble.

And for 24 usd, you'll get 1 tower.
