Default Time to stock up

Irecently just purchased a new Savage XL. This weekend Iam going to go get extra parts thatIwant to stock up on. My LHStold me what they recommend stocking up on but Ifigure they are just out to sell items. SoI thought it would be a better idea to ask those who do the bashing themselves and see what you guys recommend I stock up on. Thank you for your guys input.

slipper pads, the set screws that go through the drive shafts (there is different sizes on the truck) and a spare set of suspension arms cant hurt and obviously spare glow plugs

diff gears if you don't have the bullet proof ones, some spare screws would be good like a screw set you loose some once in awhile. and an extra set of shocks or shock parts either one.

ThunderbirdJunkie would snag at least one extra set of clutch shoes/springs and a clutch bell, along with the steering and rear toe link turnbuckles.

Other than that, the Savage chassis is fairly bulletproof. When you break something from gratuitous abuse, there's no tellin' what's gonna snap

Enjoy your wicked new truck

Watch the Ebay sellers and grab a set of shocks and a screw set. I ruin more shocks than anything else on the Savage. The screws are just really nice to have when you need one. Glen
