Looking for options for shock towers for my 6S Typhon v5.
I use the innermost mounting point for my shocks, which leaves a lot of unnecessary/ugly
tower space.
Is there another tower that would:
1-fit the Typhon
2-would have the same, or close to, the same mounting position as the stock tower's innermost mounting point?

Just curious, why do you use the inner-most?

Get carbon fiber ones and grind of the edges or maybe throw some limitless towers on
 
Most if not all of the big brand aftermarket company shock towers have the same shock mount positions as stock. The cheapo no name ones usually have additional ones or they are slightly off.

Cut and touch up paint 👌🏿

Inner positions are more progressive, and cooler looking!

The innermost location softens the suspension just a little, and the MOST IMPORTANT is that it looks cooler. :ROFLMAO:
I considered cutting, grinding, and painting, but I was wondering if there was an easier option.
 
Limitless towers are a direct fit?
They should be same differential housing the uppper links hit the same spot correct me if I’m wrong, but I have my kraton and a infraction basically the same car

Thanks. I'll look into those towers. (y)
 
I actually went to the complete opposite of what you did...

Went Extra Tall and Wide...
In fact, I was working on that project when my laptop took a dump.
Lost my design files....😖🤬


PM me, I don't believe I ever gotten your phone number..
I'll text you some of the prototypes I produced, right before the meltdown.

I’ve noticed that too over upgrading a car fiddlesticks up the preformance
This "upgrade" is pretty much to eliminate the non-used area of the shock towers so It wont change performance.
I'm wondering if I go with the limitless towers, how off will the shock holes be from the stock Typhon innermost location...?
