It okay. Don't take alot to confuse me. I though about building a battery tray that comes up to meet the body. Make it out of aluminum and polish it up. Have to line it with tape or foam to keep from shorting the batteries.

If the shocks are mounted lower on the shocktower, the whole truck becomes higher.

Okay. I wasn't sure on the question serum. Just wanted to make sure I under stood. Push the shock down and the truck goes up.
Are you trying to get some ground clearance?

No, i like 'm low.. That's why those shocktowers are a nogo for me..

you can make the sides any shape you want on the sides haha

Low towers can also give you a low ride. Just lay the shocks lower, if you know what I mean. Less steep.
But this also alters the"stiffness", springs will seem stiffer, But I guess I don't have to tell you this.

yeah, got them as close to the center on the towers and as close to the wheel on the arms..

With standard length shocks, the low profile towers allow a pretty low ride height. The UE shocks are a little longer, which make it a bit tricky to get the lower ride height. On my g-maxx with the super shocks, I use the FLM towers(which also allow a fairly low body position).
