all is a personal preference.. but itegy is made of some seriously soft aluminum ... i ran it still run certain things by them that are very well worth the money but for the most part don't spend the money enless its for a show truck .. bashing their parts will fail ... but honestly... the parts that are good and worth it are the front knuckles and c hubs... and the rear tie rod eliminators or carriers ... them 3 products will serve you well and will hold up to anything you throw at them ...

as far as hop ups n... the stock plastic is actually hard to beat other than the weak spots on the steering knuckles and rear knuckles where the tie rids screw through the small tabs on the knuckles thats why most of us do go aluminum on them parts ... other than that they are pretty durable with stock arms ect... the puller I'm building is about 30 pounds so twice as heavy as a stock savage ... haven't ran it yet with the still in the building process... but its being built to be a power house ... wont have any top speed but pure power so it can pull the sled full pulls hopefully ..lol

Nitro or electric puller and are you doing anything to the tranny I interested in controllable speed not insane speed or.power but I do want it.to.pull a kid in a wagon I got a 9t pinion I plan in trying I had it in a rc8be with ofna tires and I couldn't keep diff bearings in stock so I figure if this won't pull I'm will be getting a baja5b but one part at a time a project for me and my son but electric

I went with a company in Canada that custom makes mounts I found I needed a 42mm mount for my mm system I don't have the stock electrics that's why inbuilt my truck from parts I didn't need them plus I enjoyed the build ....my flux is pretty cool it pulled my daughter in a wagon and she's 10 and 120lbs it would only do it on grass and it went only a few feet but it moved her from a dead stop but my 3year old boy loves it I sit on the porch and cart his *** all over in that wagon I'm going to have to get youbguys some videos we have a blast...

I've had good luck with the integy rear tie rod eliminator.. basically a lockout. Would not have even tried it without the advice of some members here. All my other integy experiences have been negative, not just savage stuff either.
Gave up nitro when a local guy let me try his new flux hp at a local track when they were first released. Converted my xl with the kershaw motor mount, high cg but still fun. And could never overheat the mmm/2200kv combo no matter what I did.
