Its going to be hard to find such a large spur for a buggy. Once you start getting that big you have to start worrying about not only the number of teeth but also the pitch.

That is quite large. what about doing a Savage gear swap...would that work. I'm not sure about savage gears but that may be an idea. Ask around in the savage section and research a bit
