    Whoops

    Thanks for all the compliments! I'm a "machine tool builder and integrator" by trade. Finished the course about a year ago. We take the exact same classes in first year that a general machinist would. I also run a crappy CNC machine at work; it doesn't run on mastercam but it has its own...

    Distrait's Savage X SS

    Hey guys! Just got my break parts in (dual disc fiberglass) and I'm just waiting on my steering servo; I broke down and decided to go big so I got the Hitec HS-7955TG. Also ordered some shock socks for the hell of it. So I'm here looking at the XSS wheels. I don't like 'em. Chrome doesn't...

    Whoops

    I have to admit its not tooo difficult with the right tools, just very time consuming. I might be able to help some people out, but I don't have the time to be machining 100's of parts if it gets popular :P Maybe if its something useful that more than one person could use, I can make a few...

    Whoops

    Yep, went back to work friday night and made one up. Its made of stainless steel.. so it might wear a bit faster, however its a closer fit to the pads, so I think that will help, also it'll never rust!

    Gas?

    Distrait's Savage X SS

    Thanks for the links, I'll have to consider one of those :) I remember with my old savage though, with the 645 (or any servo), I would turn all the way to the left or right and then try to move the tires back by hand (while still full-on turn with the radio) and it took almost no force to...

    Wow! Didn't expect so many responses so quickly! Thanks for the warm welcome! Yes! I definately need a hump pack, I had one on my old truck, thanks for the reminder! I also used the Hitec 645mg on my old truck, I was thinking about trying my luck on one of those cheap ebay servos that claim...
