Hello,
Recently i traded an early 90s bear Kodiak compound bow that need strings and a couple of 2yr old xbox360 and ps3 games for a complete Savage 25 (Supposed to run) and two other boxes of mystery savage stuff. It didn't run, the engine is locked up. I have a spare K4.6 and everything i changed out to make my x an xl. I have engine plate and tvp from my x and was wondering what else i needed to not convert but just use the tvp's. Its not real important to me to change the radio box and stuff that's not a must.

Mystery Box
Full set of Losi claws on the stock 14mm rims in great shape
Full Set of Proline Maxx Paddles on 14mm rims
Another 25 roller with the tire off setting under
Full set of dirt bones + 2 with rims
Another 25 with one tvp off and in the box
All electronics in the trucks
2 transmitters
3 savage 25 bodys new stacked on top of each other
1 Savage Flux body with no decals on it.
1 Gto body
Thats just the big stuff haven't really started digging.
Thanks for any help
 
Looks like a nice lot of stuff to me.

Just to use X tvps on a .25? When I did mine there were only 2 issues. 1= The X tvps are designed for a lower center of gravity so this changed the angle of the dogbone from the transmission to the rear diff. The cross braces under the engine plate has to be changed or modified with a notch to clear the dogbone. 2= I had to add one hole in the side for the handle/rollbar and radio box.

That's it,really easy.

wow thats not much. I have a dremel so i can notch the braces like the x braces. Do you need the x front drive shaft or is the 25 same like the x and xl? Thanks for all the info.
