Sketer Switched to Kronos rear tower....much better

[HZRDOS]

When I did the wide build, JRC didn't have the Kronos towers, so I got some dementor ones. The rear would just sit level at full extension. Odd that the dementor has the same rear shocks...so I guess it sits like this from factory. I didn't like that. Finally JRC got the Kronos XTR towers back in stock....MUCH better.

Here it is with the dementor tower at first. This is full extension.

Here is the Kronos tower compared to the dementor one

And here it is with the Kronos tower installed

Nice droop. Time to fab up the tower to tower mount.

@HZRDOS. I was really surprised at the difference between the two towers.

Are you going to run it without the tube to tower brace?

I almost left it off but those braces are one of the things that really sold me on the Sketer.

Still have the brace on it. It also connects to the top of the bulkhead.

Fair enough.
