Typhon Why will Typhon bodies not fit my ebay Typhon?

[BIG TUNA]

I purchased a Typhon on ebay. The first body I ordered was for a Typhon 3s . The body now is a Proline Axis body/TLR tuned Typhon 6s body. There is no adjustment on the rear tower. While we are at it, I took the Fireteam electronics out and shoved them into this. Looks like the cooling fan will not fit with a body, also what gearing should I be running? I have a 17t in now, it seemed ok in speed but would like more! Also, does anyone know what version typhon this is?

Maybe a kraton (or some other model?) tower in the rear? You could get different mounts to try & get it to work. Also digging the poster in the background of the last pic!!

My guess is it's back in time a bit, you know a little less evolution. But the whole damn leg looks super suspect.

Perhaps you're right tho.

You're using the wrong mounts.. for that body.

Need the Kraton's > those post-mounts themselves have an offset that locates the posts closer to each other ,towards the center.

It has kraton v4 shock towers you need typhon shock towers to make the body fit and for the suspension to work better.
Here are the correct shock towers they’re only $7 on Jenny’s RC and they should solve all of your issues.

Need the Kraton's > those post-mounts themselves are canted towards each other so that'll make the holes closer to each other.

I think ur right

 

[fozzy71]

I believe he is right as the OP's rear towers and the position of the rear posts look different than my Typhon v5's:

Hey..
Better be cautious than sorry.
That's all we're saying.

You don't want to accidentally stumble into the wrong club... Know what I mean?
Especially these days.

So I need a different shock tower or just the mounts?

I believe either/or...if you give me confirmation of contents of said poster.
I would think it'd be easier to change mounts

Just the correct mounts (with posts) should do it.

 

[Smilinbri]

And for the fan, typically you have to angle it to the side to fit under the Typhon lid......like this..

And please answer @joshludden about the poster.......he has "palm wood"!!!
