This morning I ordered every available part made for the Revo from integy. I did however go with the HCR skidplate as I really like the one piece design of it. Ill post pics as soon as everything is on

I have just installed the HCR skid plate. I have yet to run it do to all the rain latley in Cali though. I like it also but I thought it would replace the other skids as opposed to ride on top of them. Just make sure when you insert the grub screws that the go in the right way, otherwise they get stuck and you have to drill it out like I will have to. One side of the grub srew has an allen head and the otherside does not! You are gonna have to post some pictures of that bad dawg when it is done, hell even while you are building it.

More will come in my review, but I think I know why they had to do it.

It's actually not a bad thing, but I admit my initial reaction was the same as both of you. Your hinge pins will thank you, beileve me as you would not want the ends captured in TI, snap, bend, ouch. Like I said more to come.
 
Please tell us more about it. I got mine month ago and just don't have time to install it.
 
We installed the full skid system on one Revo and the belly skid on the other. I thought there would be differance with the added weight, but there was no noticable differance.
I just installed my spare tranny in my Revo today (I forgot to re-set the Opti-drive) and I was popping wheelies on the pavement and grass,even flipped it over a few times! It even blistered my Savage! Although I've just put 5 tanks thru it, still needs tuning.
 
The HCR skidplate is awesome Very easy to install and seems to have really increased the strength of the chassis. Plus it looks great!! The lower arms are on backorder so Ill be waiting to intall those :( I will post pics when its all done

All of the Integy stuff has been very high quality for the money. Most of it though is just for flash. The only real performance adder I've put on so far has been the Hardcore racing skidplate. It seems to have really added strength to the chassis. Just got my arms today and will be putting them on tonight. I will post pictures as soon as its done.
 
All silver Ill be posting some pics tonight when I get home. I have some major cleaning to do after the snow jumping this morning. I can't beleive the beatings this truck withstands. I easily cleared 30 feet off of a snow bank LOL.
