Gone - bye bye.
I have a T-Maxx that I've been building, and I just recently got back into RC's a few months ago. About three or four years ago, had a T-Maxx and a Savage. I bought the T-Maxx SS kit but when I bought the kit I was really wanting something to bash and I had never built a truck so I didn't know how long it would take so I bought a T-Maxx at the same time to learn on while I built the savage. Well I finished the savage but sold it before I ever put any fuel in it and got out of RC's until about 2 months ago when I got a T-Maxx I've been building it since I got it.
Anyway, I have decided that instead of putting a big block in the maxx, I would keep a small block in it so as to not over-power the truck and build a savage that would really hold up to the big block power.
I'm wondering how the savage drivetrain holds up to the power of the big block. I know with every truck there's a small list of parts that is always good to get as soon as possible, and I'm wondering what the weak links in the savage are. For example, I knew when I got the Maxx that I needed to put on a set of RPM A-Arms and some nice shocks. How do the diffs, axles, tranny, hold up in the savage? What parts would you reccomend that I upgrade first?? I'm going to be getting the Savage X SS kit.
