    Need some good extended TVPs

    Hi all I have been off here for a couple of months as I have had a bit of a saga with my IRC extended chassis kit.

    Which engine mount???

    Hi guys, just after a bit of advice here... which engine mount is the best for the Savage? I'm building my 'ultimate truck' at the mo, not sure if it is worth spending the extra on a cooling mount (it's going on the 1 piece LCG IRC engine plate). Is the 5.9XL mount beefier than the standard...

I have seen mixed reviews of the Integy ones, be it the ballrace issue or soft pins, whilst others have had good times with them. Kind of hard...
