The front driveshaft in the GST is plastic, the front driveshaft in the Nemesis is steel. The center diff and diff cup reqiures the use of some spacers and extra screws, however I have heard the the newer GST's already have the bulkheads so all you will need is the front transmission, drivecups and the steel drive shaft. I order most of my CEN parts from www.customrccars.com. Give Ryan a call he will help you out and hook you up with what you need.
Can someone tell me what parts/part numbers I need to buy for the center differentiial in my GST to mate up with the nemesis front propeller and diff. I know I need a new dif cup, but which one? and what else is required? Thanks

Can you guys elaborate on the dual servo mod for the GST. I see if the battery box is removed and another steering pivot is added, a servo can be placed there but does anyone make a servo mount? I was considering installing a 1/5 or 1/4 scale servo but I'd rather have 2 servos like a Revo.

Thanks

Its actually rather easy to break a servo!! These are 15-17lb trucks (depending on how much bling you have on it) and the comparitively small, tiny, petite, rather smallish servos can and will break!! but the best part is you can get cheap($15 on ebay all day long) replacements!! if you feel the need for better steering response then you will definitely NEED dual servos!!

You might be better off seeking help in a public place to insure quality info.. Just a thought.. No offense intended Dakota_Davies

Try the Hitec 5955. You'll like it.

well installed new hitec servo wasn't the 5955 its a 565 only 133 oz. but it was free seems to be stronger than the stock one though. ran and drove good but i pop the steering arm off the ball joint [still learning the terms here] took the bolt out and put it back on probably want last long going to get another . is it normal for these things to suck down a tank of fuel in about 7-8 Min's my god my dodge diesel gets better mileage. but its a running s.o.b. gst that is any advice will be appreciated come on guys help a newbie brother out
hate to be a taker and not a giver but I'm to new to give any yet

sounds like it might be running rich, but I'm not familiar with your climate. Depending on your tune, it could be normal. The 7.7 is a pig!! Has to be to haul around 16lbs the way it does!!
