Default Front shock tower
Has anyone used one of the proline heavy duty shock tower units from rovers north?

I'm looking at these as well. Looks like some trimming may be required, but I like these much better than the TF units. Thanks for posting the question, maybe someone has experience.

I've seen some that were galvanized vs yellow. I had a set of TF units on a D1 and they were excellent. I live in TX so corrosion wasn't an issue though.
