    to integy or not to integy that is this ?

    I've had good luck with the integy rear tie rod eliminator.. basically a lockout. Would not have even tried it without the advice of some members here. All my other integy experiences have been negative, not just savage stuff either. Gave up nitro when a local guy let me try his new flux hp at...

    WTB Heavy duty axles

    Agreed. Although the rtr x had the standard black and x ss came with shiny hd bones and cups. Had alot more luck with the shiny hd cups than the bones. It was nice when the shd stuff came out on the XL. Funny story, i was using standard diff cups and bones on some XL axles on my rtr x and...

    How did you end up with a savage?

    Towards the end of '06 i went to my lhs looking for a new monster after my mini mgt snapped in half. An x was sitting on the 'broken' shelf in the back of the store, a customer ride. Basically it was a week old with a broken pin in the crank. Lhs owner contacted the customer and $250 later it...

    I gotta say I'm lucky for the most part. The lhs close to my work has alot of what one would consider race parts (tires/wheels, bodies, paint, bug/trugg parts etc) but very little savage parts if any. Except for the interchangeable Hellfire parts. Now the lhs by my work is basically the...

    Post your tire and rim setup pics

    Trenchers on axial wheels. Awesome tires that seem to work just about everywhere. About the same weight or a tiny bit heavier than terrapins on stock wheels.

    High end car audio 2011

    In the past I picked up some suitable drivers, caps, coils and resistors from partsexpress.com. Made up my own component set and passive 2way xo's with a zobel network. If my pant legs get blown around with minimal distortion, it was enough for me. For subs, almost anything suitable for an ib...

    Bearing failure!

    The one bearing included is intended for a plugnplay experience being that the id for the ring side is smaller. Merry crimmas too!

    Bearing failure!

    I highly recommend the bp diffs, lost a couple bearings on the bp's and they lived through it. My standard diffs always ended up like in the pics

    Well...The project begins

    That, sir, was a good deal in that case

    Well...The project begins

    Were they bp or nitro diffs? The only xl's with bp diffs are the xl+2.4ghz radio. Most ebay auctions don't specify this and the sellers don't even know the difference

    Savage 21 to an XL, is it possible?

    Basically its your money :) If you decide to go to xl, you will need... axles, bones, diff output cups, tvps, center to rear bone and 3spd. Might as well go bp diffs too, its a worthwhile upgrade
