Sure looks sweet. Be a shame to put battle scars on that shell.
 
I have ran 5.5 tanks thru it this weekend, almost broke in and running sweet! Still waiting for my pipe.
 
Still waiting for my pipe. I got a hold of Robin and inquired about it. He sent me this email.

Frank, my apologies as I screwed up big here. I had two orders for frank come through but yours wasn't processed out of the pending file. I do have a polished pipe that would fit your order and I can ship it today if polished is fine with you, or I can have a raw one shipped out tomorrow. Let me know and I will get on it ASAP, and once again I'm very sorry for this mistake.

Super nice guy, he is sending me the polished one.
 
So I have been looking at the shocks on my Losi LST, what do I have to buy in order to adapt these on my Savage? I know I have seen people on here with that conversion. Is it worth doing??
 
I have them on my savage. They do well. They look awesome. Problem is the cost. If I had to do it all over again I might go big bores instead.

To answer your question though, Innovative RC makes the kit that most people use as well as the aluminum body LST shocks. They even sell an upgrade kit to to give them 8mm shafts.

Link to mounting supplies. Make sure you buy the correct one for the model savage you have.

They also sell other stuff like TVPs and shock towers.
 
Still havnt got the pipe, but according to Robin, it has been sent and should be here by next weekend. I was hoping to have it this weekend but he told me it would take about 1 - 1 1/2 weeks to get here. I have got the motor broke in and the truck is awesome! I am really impressed with this LRP 32. I got my new Losi tires yesterday so now I can get them on my truck and put my old Losi tires back on my Losi LST. Here are a few pics that I took last night, not as clean as it was in previous pictures. I havnt ran it with the body on it either.




 
My pipe is finally here!!! It is sitting at the post office, now just waiting to get off of work so I can go get it.
 
I couldn't wait for the weekend, I had to at least hear what it sounded like so I fired it up in my living room last night. It sounds awesome!!!!! I cant wait to see how she runs now.
