is aluminum the answer?

[faisalbasha]

every time my truck flips over these things bend and they have to be replaced. Ive gone through about 10 of the long screws that hold the shocks on the shock towers. Unless i try bending them back to normal shape, its bye bye and i must buy replacements.

These are the screws: hpi 94398

would buying aluminum shock towers solve this issue?

No..... It'll make it worse.

Do you run with the body on ? the shock tower is plastic and flexes quite a bit, so with the body off they take the brunt of the impacts from flipping and most likely bend the shock screws as a result...
