    6 x 6 anyone???

    Done a bit of research and i think the only way i'll get the length right is to convert the TVP's to a 5B, problem is i can only find flux versions of a savvy to 5b conversion. Is there a nitro one out there?As far as i can tell the french guy who made some amazing 6x6 chassis does not make...

    6 x 6 anyone???

    Just doing a bit more research and i thought i could do a 4x4 version with an FG race truck body for starting and an extended TVP for a chassis. The longest one i can find is the desert boy but it appears to be for electric only is this right?

    HPI Savage Sway Bar Set. HPI Part # 102538

    Hi everyone, I'm interested in doing this mod but not sure it would work on my 3.5. I'm running stock front and back bulk heads and all the related components. From what I can gather I need to a) drill some holes in the lower suspension arms or b)replace the ones I have with some from an...

    Cheers Mickey, i already have the body for that, think i might be beating a dead horse with this one, can't find anything that will definitly work, could be costly buying stuff to try. I'll keep looking though!

    scale wheels/tyres???

    I meant more sort of a pick up off roader scale look, rather than mt scale look. I reckon some of the crawler or SC wheel tyres would be the best bet but all the one i can find are on 12mm hexes, anybody no of any that are on 14's or 17's please? I think if i matched some wheels/tyres...
