I used the SX10/Xpro Carbon fiber tower in a race after breaking the stock one.

I had to dremel the mounting holes a little to the insite but it was an easy fit. Since the tower wasn't agled I mounted the shocks on the front instead of the rear. There was a bigger gap between the body and tower and the wing was sligtly backward (more like the X6)

I now have modified my tower to fit in front of the bulkhead. I will try it soon. I havent broke any stock tower since I boiled them though...

So on your carbon tower you won't be screwing the gearbox top screws in, so the gearbox and the tower are now screwed to the chassis as two separate units. Hows the flex on the plastic t chassis brace
