hey thank morphin3,
Yeah I measured the stock ones as well and they only are a bit smaller. Well I might try and get a pair! If I was in USA I would have got a pair already as it takes long to ship over to the UK and cos of shipping I thought I'd ask first!
Anyone know about these shocks suitability for the savage? Looks nice and tough, but only 13cm in length...

Yeah they are almost slick, but handles good as you said on the smooth bit of the parking lot, only at the edges where its rough it does crazy 360'S :D
BTW I got the black rims, not the chrome ones as shown on the website. The rims are solidly built, I don't think they will break easily!
Finally had a chance to test the wheels and tyres and they are awesome!
The grip on the tarmac was really good and almost no sidewall flex, didn't manage to flip the truck even after crazy turns! The compound held up well to rough tarmac with only minimal wear. However the grip wasn't that...
First of all sorry for the long delay in posting an update, only today had a chance to run the truck with the new radio and new Savox servos.
The radio performed really well and in the area I had it had about 250m range with no problem, quick response and no glitches.
Setting up the radio...
Hi all,
Last night I played with the a radio a bit, just installed into the truck and set up ABS etc. Its quite easy to setup (even for a noob, despite chinglish instructions) and lots more options that I need with my basic RC knowledge :)
The buttons seem to be solid and not fall after...
Hey Thanks everyone!
The Eurgle just fitted last night as I was away for the weekend and just played a bit. Lots of options and ABS seems to work well (when I roll the truck by hand).
The mill is pretty good so far, I bought it 2nd hand from ebay and rebuilt and sealed it. Only run about...
Hi all,
I finally had some time to take some pics of my truck, It's still a WIP since I've gotta get a proper fuel tank, but here are some pics anywa! Enjoy :D

Messy RX box! Just fitted the Eurgle Rx to test
I bought these recently and arrived this morning.

Anyone heard of these? I've only got the standard Sav 25 wheels and thought these will be better on tarmac.... hopefully they'll perform better than the stock...
Yay I finally got it this morning! The Rx is tiny! The controller is not a thing of beauty, but seems solid and functional. Haven't had time to test it as I was just on my way to work, have to be next week as I am away this weekend.. damn!
