comparably cheap, i mean if you put a bracket on what is cheap and what isn't you would never be able to buy certain things

You will have a lot better luck here. A servo for a 60 pound rc car/car whatever is not common. Its probably going to cost $$$$$.

Your only option is either a home made one from a windscreen wiper motor or something like that (you need to be very handy with electronics to make that work), or a Tonegawa PS-050.

I recommend you use or build a servo saver. I hereby formally request a build thread in which you post pictures of your plans and progress.

What about multiple servos (like,Ibelieve, the LST) ? If the ENTIRE car is 60 lbs that doesn't mean that the servos are pulling 60 lbs. They are just turning the wheels and pulling throttle linkage. TheBaja 5B is 3 feet and weighs around 30 lbs. Couldn't you find a way to double up two of those servos. I may very well be wrong, but I saw your thread and the thoughtoccurred to me.
Also, check out the threads is the GiantScaleforum, a couple guys were working on 1/2 scale and 1/4 scalecars. I don't remember the namesof the threads, but the guys in there are very knowledable about large heavy RCs.

-Also TBJ's suggestion of the dual JR 8711 servos would also work.
