well, i already broke 3 shock towers, so im thinking of buying hot racing aluminum shock towers, are the 25 bucks worth it?

dont get it, i also broke three shock towers, then went to that aluminum one and my car went on its back and snapped the aluminum shock tower just as easy as the stock one.

Broke an aluminum tower?. . Must of been thrashing it pretty hard.

I beat my jato pretty good and so far haven't broken (or even bent) my New Era aluminum towers or A-Arms. Top plate and bulkheads on the other hand are getting to be a pretty fast repair for me.... :(

Not sure about Hot Racing products but you can't go wrong with New Era aluminum.

i was jumping it like 2 feet going 10+mph and my little cousin wanted to try it, so i let him but i said just once.....just my luck he only needed one try to break it. as soon as he hit the jump he hit the gas all the way and the truck tilted back and landed on its tail, the shock tower snapped......ive had stock shocktowers take better beatings than that. :mad:
