    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    Also, how do you calculate your final drive ratio? I understand the clutch bell/spur gear ratio, and I understand the pinion/bevel gear ration in the diff, but how do you figure those two ratios together?

    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    I think I'll probably stay with stock diffs for the moment. I am however quite interested in the CEN diffs. I have a buddy with a CEN and may get rid of it, maybe then I'll jump in and buy his rig and see what I can use from it. Also, I figure I'll learn how to shim these properly before I spend...

    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    So I should check the spider gears then Bank? Is 30k silicone oil good for inside the Diff assembly?

    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    I've considered the CEN diffs... Just not sure if I want to change all my ratios. I like the balance of speed/acceleration that the stock units have. They look so wicked though! Hard decision. Shimming would make any diff bullet-proof though right?

    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    Well I checked the small gear that connects the drive shaft to this bevel gear and it didn't even have a scratch. I suppose I should also pop open my front diff and check that one? Do I need to check the spider gears too?

    Is this going to be a problem for me on my bevel gear?

    Just opened up the rear diff, put in some new silicone diff oil (30k), and noticed some damage on the teeth of the bevel gear. Is this something that needs to be replaced ASAP? What is the likely cause of this damage?

    How much diff grease?

    I'm specifically talking about the stock green grease that can be exposed be removing the rear skid plate. Evidently my LHS only carries Silicone Oil at 30 000 Wt.

    How much diff grease?

    Last weekend my seal on the bottom of my rear diff was compromised so now I'm going to change out all the grease. My question is, how much grease do I put in? How do I know when enough is enough? Is it possible to have too much?

    Cen GST 7.7 tuned pipe

    They are however, particularly hard on their trucks. For all I know, they didn't even install it correctly.

    Cen GST 7.7 tuned pipe

    Two of my buddies have put this pipe on their CEN GSR's and both have broken the pipe twice each in the same places. One at the opposite end from the engine (the screw or something that holds it up), and they both broke the little connector nub thingy for the pressure line back to the fuel tank.

    Looking for a Hobby shop with Savage parts

    Anybody know of a good hobby shop in Kalispell Montana that has savage stuff. Going camping there and I want to know where I may be hanging out should I bash my truck to pieces.

    Little Help Please....

    I've used the sanding disc and drum a bunch of times on my body (I even used the disc to do the Mr. Snuggles Throttle Mod). Also, a grinding stone thingy (kinda like a pencil in shape) is pretty helpful.

    3 Speed Transmission confusion

    Ok... I have a Savage X 4.6 RTR So which three speed tranny do I need for more top end and more bottom too? I want to assemble it myself to save the money and for the fun of it. And I want the adjustment on the side just like my current tranny has. So what's the part number? I feel like...
