Default light crawler servo needed

im looking to replace my stock wheely king servo. i dont have alot of cash tho. would the traxxas 2055 high-torque servo do well? i want a servo strong enough to atleast turn the tires without the truck having to move 1st. i was thinking of the traxxas 2055 servo cause it only cost $30 new. any ideas of what would be better for a similar price.

Or go to www.jpcustomrcs.com and get a Tower Pro 946 for under $20.00 w/ metal gears and over 200 ozs of torque.

Perfect for crawling.

thanx, iv found on ebay that i can get 2 mg995 servos new for $27shipped. the only thing that will suck is that they ship from suppliers in hong kong, so it will take like 2 weeks. but i believe those should get all 4 wheels on my wheely king turning good.

I agree with dez, That's where i got my servo and that exact one. it works great, it moves the darn rocks when i turn the wheels. best 20 bucks i've spent on the crawler soo far! Now i just need a Moped esc and I'm having the same problem, I don't want to get it shipped from hong kong.
