I was on the fourm just the other day and came across a post that I can not find for the life of me. What Im looking for is that taller servo saver spring from some other truck. I want to pick that up asap so If anyone has a link or something it would be great.

What you are looking for is the OFNA Monster Pirate servo saver. You have to disassemble it to get the taller spring. I've done this mod a different way. I used the whole servo saver assembly and two brass clutchbell spacers to fit on the original steering posts. Works great. OFNA sells two kits, one with bearings and one with spacers. I highly recommend the one with bearings if you haven't upgraded already.

This is the link to the servo saver.

You can disassemble it and use the spring on the HPI servo saver, or you can replace the whole HPI servo saver with the OFNA one, with two brass CB shims. There is a tutorial on another forum I am on.
