this is a copy paste from http://www.savage-central.com/ where I didn't get any response. I am hoping for more love here
Hi all!
I am new here and new to the savage world of savages, I just bought a used Savage X or at least I think it's an X since there is a huge X on the chassis. I am not sure what model it is nor how old it is.
The motor was dead, witch didn't really matter since I plan to put a brushless motor into the beast. Is the kershawdesigns brushless conversion kit the way to go or should I use something else?
The shocks sound like the oil has been replaced with sand, so I might have to either clean them and put in new oil but I want to have 4 shocks instead of 8.
What should I have in mind when I take it apart to see what I need to replace or upgrade?
Also I recently bought a Summit so my next buy wasn't supposed to be a monstertruck I had planned to buy a 1/8 buggy but I got this one for a pretty good price, so what are my options in making the savage into a buggy/truggy type of vehicle?
Here are some pic's of the beast.
there are some updates though, I took it apart and the chassis plates where bent and broken in two places and there where quite a lot of missing and non stock screws in the truck so I bought new plates and screws off ebay.
