Default Front Tower

Has anyone noticed that the top mounting holes on the front tower are actually lower than the stock tower? I didn't notice until I compared the two on top of each other. Well, I actually only noticed when the chassis would not bottom out - I installed the newer HL shock bodies, used 4mm spacers inside the shocks & saw that the buggy bottomed out on the lower spring collars, and the chassis still sat around 1 cm above the table! The difference between the holes of the towers is maybe 2mm, but once on the buggy it made a huge difference. So I've switcvhed back to the stock tower.

There might be enough room to drill one or two new holes above the stock hole locations - I may try it, the part is not much use to me otherwise.

FYI - I'm racing on carpet indoors. Maybe it's not as noticeable on dirt where more travel is used?
