HPI Nitro MT and whats Interchangeable

[Rizzle67]

I picked this truck up cheap. Motor was gummed and batteries dead. 20 min with some wd40 and a heat gun motor was turning. Fired up. Something I noticed as driving was a horrible wobble in the front in.
Long story short. I need to know if the MT2 and MT3.0 are interchangeable with the first generation MT. I need a mew front shock tower.

Oh I got it running and drove it until I realized the front tower is broken. Thats the point of this thread. I can find MT2 parts all day. Not MT though. My question is can i put MT2 shock mounts or shock tower on my MT

Do you or someone you know have a 3d printer? If so they will be your new best friend.
Here is a look at both of them.

Looking at it, if it was me, I would try a set to mix and match.

Actually as my skill set goes I am a carbon fiber fabricator. Once I get a replacement I was going to use the broken one to help make a template for a CF tower.

I have been needing a few basic carbon fiber parts made, after three different guys i was referred and or heard about on fb i lost some irreplaceable original parts, funds, and gave up on that.

What parts are you needing? Before I say I can do it need to know what it is.

If you make cf parts, you may be able to sell them on ebay.

I know I've been researching making cf parts recently. Hpi belt cars has a ton, but not much for the shaftys.
