Hey Bud... sorry I missed you this year back home, but the NH trip got cut short. We are planning a trip back same time next year. We know what to expect now, so we will definitely hook up for sure... I sent you an e-mail while I was in NH, but never got any reply...

Anyway... I still have the Hyper and man I love that thing. I traded my Savage for the Mantis looking for a backup trugg. If I didn't do something with it would have ended up sitting on my shelves all sad an what not. Kinda like you said it would LMAO!!!

The Savage bevels were a perfect match just a little more coned than the Mantis stockers. I still have to open up the diff case again to see if there is any damage. I am using 3K in the rear. When I pick up the front I can feel it pushing, not hard or anything, but when I try to run it feels like FWD only... 2 weekends in a row now.

When I did open it up last week... nothing was wrong. No excessive where or anything that looked like the diff's were smoked. Maybe there is an issue with the cone length. I'll know more when I open it up this week.
