I'd just go the 645MG for the same cash if it was me, but if you want that one its upto you.
I only got experience with the 645 so I can't comment on the 635(also never heard of anyone say anything positive or negative about it)

nitroholic, the one you linked is still only 83oz torque, and 'kryptonite' gears ? i dont know whats that but its no metal gears !
get the 645mg, its got metal gears, ball bearings and has 133oz of torque.

for the steering always use metal gear servos if possible.

they sound like a stronger non-nylon plastic ;)
but if I'm right they are still plastic

Ok check this one out,i'm sure this would do it,but would it plug into the traxxas reciever?

i dont know, some plugs have a little tab on one side to make sure you dont plug it inverted.
if the servo have the tab and your receiver doesnt, just remove the tab from the servo plug with a knife.

RE: Would this servo be a direct replace for a sterring
 
Yeah the original traxxas ones do have that tab,so either way it should work.

How much torque does a 15kg/cm havein oz/inches?

I bought some of these for a heli, but they're getting used for steering:
