i got all my wheels to the same camber and went out for a bashin session with my brother yesterday and we had a blast!!!savvys brilliant and handles like a dream. my high torque steering servo really makes a difference. we were settin up jumps goin a bit higher each time. my truck just takes it and keeps goin, its amazing. now i want to go for some really big jumps.:Xjeep: can anyone reccomend some springs/shocks that would help me land a big jump. i want to jump as high as possible but i dot want to wreck my truck!! i was also thinkin of a 17mm hex conversion and some 7" wheels. what u guys think? how high do u think i should try 4? (without wreckin my truck mind!!)

The main concern would be to maintain a good amount of forward momentum with the jump. That would help keep a good amount of stress off of the suspension. I've gone full speed off a 6 foot curved ramp that was at least 45* in angle. Savage took it like a champ, I had about 25 feet of air.
