    steering servo

    The JR DZ9000T is great is you don't mind spending the money. It usually runs around 110-120 pending where you buy it. If you looking for tight turning radius with large tires this servo can hold that line for you. It great for racing or just beating around the house or park!

    17mm conversion

    Blazer X, I use ofna CVD for the CRT Truggy with the those hex hubs. The work great and can handle the abuse. Taking pretty much any truggy CVD would work for you. One good thing is that I haven't twisted a drive shaft yet using the Ofna CVDS. Actually you could use any buggy hex hubs since...
