Default What is your best mod?

What is the best or favorite modification you have done to your Savage?

I think that the Ofna fuel tank is my favorite, the stock one is so PITA, making the truck run rich to lean.

Here is a clear picture of the mod:



LOL

Why you kept bending the stock one or you like the stability of the longer frame? One of my truck has XL frame and it is more stable than the X when I bash on very bumpy surface.

I like the fact that it handles more like a truggy now because of the extra length and width (wide axles too).

I have to choose one mod??? No fair LOL

If I had to choose one it would be the shock tower brace. Because we all have bent our towers and its annoying. This very simple mod which uses and old roll bar actually braces the tower very very effectivly and it very strong.
