Hey, just thought I'd give you guys a update on my savage project truck, I picked it up at a pawn shop with intentions of just using it as a temporary rig until I could afford a new one. But after a closer inspection it had a few things upgraded so i just decided to build it and keep it. Here's what it allready had both servos were Hi-Tech, a integy heat sink engine plate and front shock tower, plus it looked like it was well cared for. I've put on a set of 17 mm hex hubs with chrome dog-bones and rebuildable universals as well as done away with the left -handed thread axles. I've also put on a new set of Savage 5.9 wheels with Terra-pin tires, the engine was pulled in favor of a LRP Z28 SPEC 3, also a Hpi ribbed pipe. just waiting on a new clutch to arrive so i can put it all together. I have a question, Is there a noticable difference in changing this truck to the HPI Big-Bore shocks ? And will the sport shocks fit my savage .25 ?? or do I need the Big Bore Aluminum shocks ? and are there advantages to the aluminum ones ? Oh, and I have a new 72 chevy c10 truck body to finish it off. All suggestions and information is greatly appreciated. thanks Mackdaddy66 !!:\
