Xtreme Racing Aluminum Rear Shock Tower for Traxxas Slash 4x4 (Black)
I've had a pair of rear and fronts since I got my SCT and they're a great product. The aluminum is as tough as nails and more sturdy/strip resistant than the plastic mountings that come with some kits.

Xtreme Racing Aluminum Rear Shock Tower for Traxxas Slash 4x4 (Black)
The Xtreme shock tower is made from 3/16" (0.187") AL. The stock slash shock tower is only 4mm (0.157") thick at the mounting location. So this shock tower is basically 0.030" thicker than stock, which means the plastic case isn't fully together when assembled and can let your bearings float a little. I had mine milled down to fit to the stock dimensions, unless you can do that I don't recommend these. Disappointing, you'd think that anyone capable of making a component like this would understand the importance of missing it by 0.030". Once fitted correctly they are a nice addition to the Slash

Xtreme Racing Aluminum Rear Shock Tower for Traxxas Slash 4x4 (Black)
This DOES NOT WORK without modifying either the thing you just paid $20 for or the standard diff housings. Makes no sense. As someone else states it is too thick, so leaves a gap in the diff cover that will let in dirt and let the diff float around. Unfortunately, I did not read that review till after I tried fitting it in my car.
