    Here's a couple tid bits for Y'all.

    The wheels on the left side of the truck are REVERSE threaded! Lefty-tighty, righty-loosy. They are the exact opposite as most nuts, but only on the left side. I broke my lug nut wrench trying to get them off! The nuts on the left side are black, while the ones on the right are silver so you don't get them mixed up when putting them back on.

    Get this, Tmaxx/Savage wheels are a direct fit! That's awesome!


    Sounds like they put some work into the details. Those wheel nuts are the same as a savage then. They all tighten towards the front of the truck. I sit here extremely jealous....

    The only things that are remotely questionable about it so far are the crappy placement of the AA batterys (won't be a problem if you use a Rx pack), the length of the fuel tube (the filter is wedged between the engine and tank, again an easy fix), the length of the drive shafts (we'll see how the cups hold up), and that's about it.

    Oh, there is a little too much gap (just over 1/8" on the top of the shocks where they are bolted to the tower. They have a little horizontal play up there, the spacer is just a touch too long. It won't hurt performance, but I may put a small o-ring in there just to snug it up a bit.

    How much bigger do you think the LST is to a Savage?
