Hey guys,

Here are some pics of my new Savage SS 4.6. I have already added Proline Maxx Mashers on Velocity 6 Rims, and a RC Raven roll cage. What do you think?

Looks great bro! Like the cage - have you started on the body? Good thing you pulled that all nighter!

Looks like a great truck. Please resize your pics down to 640 X 480!

Thanks for all the compliments, I haven't broken in the engine yet, haven't had time.

Nope not yet, it is going to be blue with some silver flames on the side, similar to the pic on the box :)
 
that thing looks unridiculous. that cage and tires set it off sweetly indeed. whats one of those roll cages run? looks like a safe bashing investment.
 
It looks great. I hope too order mine next month. I was wondering about the tires. Are they the ones the kit came with or did you replace them with the ones shown? I thought they came with the Bones tires?

Again, it looks great

Thanks a lot, I really love those tires and wheels with the cage too. Looks awesome. I got that cage used from a member here for 50$. Sometimes you can find them on Ebay for around 45$ if you're lucky.

No, the stock wheels and tires are HPI 8-Spoke Chrome wheels with Dirtbones tires. I'll throw the stockers on and get a pic for you. They also look great on the truck. Thanks for the comments :cheers:


Okay here are some pics of the stock wheels and tires.

Nice job AC. Mine is still on back order and it's bugging the crap out of me. Get that thing out and give us a full report on what you think of the 4.6.

BTW....what radio and servo's are you using? Did you opt for the reverse?
 
I have a Hitec HS-645MG throttel/brake servo, and a XTM X-175 steering servo which has 175 oz./in. of torque!

I will try and take some video of my febuary vaca, which starts next weekend. I'm going to Sunday River Ski resort and I want to see if I can take it out on the trails :D That would be awesome!

Yes, that is the stock pipe. I was going to sell it because I have a CVEC pipe, but once I saw it on the truck I had to keep it.

Thanks again guys for all your comments. I had a great time building it and will be breaking it in tomorrow. Fisherman, you're right, this truck does look awesome, and don't worry I plan on beating the piss out of this truck :D
 
What are you waiting for go break that bitch in!!!!! mine is done and next week end Ill beat the piss out of her Vids to come.
 
Lol, first thing after school tomorrow is break in. I'm thinking of trying the heat cycle method. Anyone have any comments about that?

Oh yeah, I am not running the reverse, and I have a Aitrtonics MX-A radio, which comes with a Sub-Micro reciever. It really makes the radio box much easier with a micro reciever.
