RE: Savage LE w/Big Joe's
Thanks all!! I put them on the other day. I think they look mean. I did run them for a bit and it does put some strain on the truck but it still moves!! I will be talking to the old lady and see if I can get the 30VG from OS. I think it will fly after that!

Big Joes look great , but unfortunately they kill performance and damage transmission gears very quickly.

Big Joes, Good stuff. The joes and an LCG chassis makes for a good combo I think. I don't flip on turns (dirt or pavement) more like drift on the corners. with stock or moabs my savy would have the tendency to flip easily. Its also more stable with the joes on mid air jumps. The moab's are to heavy, those can definately ruin a tranny. I've had my joes for a year now and yet to break a tranny with 28 motor. Just my .02

I've only seen the big joes in action on my buddies LST, and man does that truck move those tires, I was thinking about getting them until he replaced his joes with some 40 dish wheels and bows, wider stance more solid, the truck loves those tires, I decided personally to get the LST king pins, and never looked back, but I do have the 40 bows on the savage and with the lower CG TVP's, and 1 inch lowered shocks, the truck sits like the hellfire and dominator now, should proove to be a monstrous threat on the track.
Only time will tell, its still way to cold out

RE: Savage LE w/Big Joe's
Thanks for the comments guys!! I really do like them and they make the truck look good!! I have noticed that the truck is a little slow with those tires but man she still moves out!! In third gear, its a freak!! I may go back to the stockers when I run with CTDB cause his Revo is nice too!!
Tmodlin thanks for the comment and help. As you can see I went with these tires and wheels. I also did get the other stuff you told me about. Thanks again Tim!!
