Good thing is for big air contests with the nitro guys I just unscrew the 4 screws and slide the tower down and have massive suspension travel. But Id go for the fronts if I had it to do over.

Can someone check if LST shocks will fit without the springs on. Also does anyone have the rear buggy shocks on their E-Maxx? Pics if anyone has them

I over think things sometimes and I'm still considering things.

That answers my question. There is no way I can use them as bypass shocks. It looks like if I'm going to keep the towers stock or RPM them I'd better get front buggy shocks and skip the rears or would rears be good and fit fine?
