    Savage+Hellfire+Tekno+Mugen Mod

    I still have it and yes held up through the test of time; unless otherwise I hit a pole or a concrete post I am sure it will be either a bent hinge pin or warped lower arm holes. Still doing 15-20 feet jumps but no crazy stunts.

    Savage+Hellfire+Tekno+Mugen Mod

    Hi all! Just thought I’d update my mod. Another alternative is to trim some materials from the bulkhead INSTEAD of trimming some materials from the Tekno Arms…if I need to swap worn out / damaged arms I can easily get one without the need to trim the material:

    The extended braces are acustom-made and I use a longer CVDs (from a Tekno ET Truggy). I also had to change the diff cups for proper fitting of the CVD.
