You should probably upgrade the ring and pinion gears in the diffs.

He really should just swap to the Flux bulkheads and diffs. Even X SS diffs/bulkheads. Anything to get rid of those wretched old-style bulkheads [&:]

Bout 30 bucks per bulkhead/diff/shock tower for the XSS ones, 50 per for the Flux/XL ones.

thanks thunderbirdjunkie i was actually looking into that and i saw a flux diff/bulkhead go for about 30 on ebay. now can u tell me what i need to install the bulkheads and diffs or is it a direct drop in??

thanks

All you need is the shock tower, which some ebay chop shops include with the bulkhead/diff, since the old style (21/25/ss) shock tower won't bolt to the X bulkhead. Other than that, it's a direct drop in.

That's it, but you still need the shock towers with that one.

Wow just realized I forgot to post my 2nd savage in the thread [:@]

Savage .21 to electric convert.
Before anyone says the body is too clean I never ran it with the body on
I actually ordered it a new 150amp ESC today with a 2000kv motor because the 120A MM 2200kv motor combos wires were getting too hot for my liking, and it spent more time on its roll bar(or I should say whats left of its roll bar) than on its tires.

Probable future plans for it: get flux diff's/diff cases and towers, flux battery box's, flux's motor mount, and the 1/5th scale flux conversion kit (I just like how that sucker looked from vids a user posted)
