Sexyyy! :hehe:

Are those CEN differentials a direct fit? I wanna try them.

i'm not sure what all goes into it. A guy on savage-central builds them. I am getting a set pre-installed in bulkheads. The are shimmed and come with HD outputs. I gave him 140 to build them. They are supposed to be the UBER diff.
 
thanks. i remember now why i love the savage trucks. they are just so freakin solid!
 
...I'm jealous

:whhooo:JESUS!! Why i didn't see that thread...i dont know, but i will say this...that is one sexy Savage!!!

If I pay shipping on the tvp's, can I have the diffs too? :hehe:
 
speak english. Doumo Arigato.
"Uber" is derived from Greek; it means "over" or "better" also in German it would be roughly translated to "nothing is better than" In other words the CEN diffs are the Shiznit! Do Itashimashite! (You're welcome)

yeah uber is our japanese teachers favorite word. i know what it means i was being a smart one
 
If you guys wanna know more bout the cen diff flm is talking bout go over to savage-central and hit up badass savage he is the guy who does it
 
well, no new pictures but i did add MIP cvd's at all 4 corners as well as the front center shaft. The rear is the extended FLM one so that has to stay. I also put a vented 17T clutchbell and geared it back to 49/17 instead of 47/17.

The axial is coming into its own and starting to produce decent power. Next on my list is a 3 speed with the high speed 3rd gear.

Just keeping you updadted


I also beat the snot out of it for the lhs guys today. :)

FYI Wings and Wheels in Tyler, Tx is the best hobby shop i have encountered to date. Friendly guys, decent selection and wholesale prices on vehicles. Brand new Revo 3.3 is $399. Brand new savage X is 349.

i do have a few new pics. It got a new futaba steering servo to help save on battery life. The 8711 is strong but it pulls down a 6V pack pretty quick. I switched to a Futaba 192in oz with a transit speed of .13. Its also got a slayer body on it and looks great IMO. I'll see if i can find the memory card reader and get them posted.


I actually don't drive it much anymore. The slayer has stolen my interest and the savage just sits in the garage.
 
few more pics. taken in the same spot so they look the same but this has alot of new parts you can't see. :) Cen diffs and the futaba. lol
