alot of people like the hitech 645MGs, another option is futaba s3305. both real good servos. as far as the wheels go,never heard of anything using bearings out of the carrier? you could go to a larger hex,but then you would have to buy wheels to match. those wheels are notorius for having problems there. those are the same wheels offered in the truckzilla savage kit. that linkage turned out pretty sweet.
 
The hitech is the one at the LHS for 35 bucks. Ihave some different wheels that are a bit smaller than the7 inch Mayhem tires. I like to switch it up.
 
does the roll bar look ok? I can't make up my mind. But it will protect stuff and thats what matters. I keep telling myself.
 
She is a beast guys! She seems to pull harder, then out of the blue I start getting fuel cut. I added a fuel filter a durbo and they are supposed to flow well. I think I am going to put it on the pressure line, what do you guys think?

Just don't run without a good filter. I think what you have would be 'Dubro'. Hold off on adding anything in the return, and get it tuned correctly first. Then you can add it, if it's totally clean, but you might need to tweak the tune at that point.
 
so I will check the filter tomorrow. I also need to work on my tune with the different air filter.
 
I like those tires a lot, the tread pattern looks realistic like something that you would see on a super swamper TSL or something. I build lowered trucks so I might be wrong about the super swamper's being "TSL" but it's something like that anyway :doh:

i like those alot better than those super huge ufos, shes lookin good! about the only upgrade i see it could use are some aluminum bulks and skids. but if it aint broke dont fix it! just replace them when it really needs it. ohhh and you could use some body mounts,if you dont already have them just not installed.

Yhea I like those tires alot better also and I have a bigger tire and wheel combo also. I have body posts buty like you said I have been tuning it and with the bar on I am not as worried about a body. I want a center skid and the others will come with time. The bulks are getting put on when and if I break the stock ones.
 
Man, today I tried and my transmitter was backwards Tomarrow is suposed to be nice
