Have done a fair bit to he savage since I have had it and had my fair share of problems from the flywheel Collet disintegrating, steering servo melting, 2 owb failures and a snapped shock cap.

I have ran just over a gallon of fuel through her to date.

Mods so far:

50w diff oil in front and 30 to rear

Sealed engine and carb

Shock socks

Fuel filter

7955TG steering servo

HD Servo saver spring

Metal steering bearings

Savage imprinted chassis guard

Tank guard

Custom throttle/brake linkage

Steering throw mod

New offset wheels with dirt bond style tyres

Integy 18mm offset hub extenders

Water resistant air filter

Hump pack 1600 x 2

That's it so far.. not sure what is next on the list..

Need to get my tune right as I think my lsn is still very rich and I can't seem to get it to idle without it being very high.

Anyone from around the Portsmouth area?

Some more photos..

Welcome... You found the site then....!

Have you got the shock fixed yet... I was there when it snapped!

Probably out tomorrow if the rain holds off/stops.

There is loads a info on here for savages (they always seem to go wrong?) LOL and tuning.

You were getting Sonera serious air of that jump!

No problem woodzy. But I think you are confusing me with someone who can drive.. The serious air was an ST truggy, I have the hyper 7 TQ (black one) and no one has ever said I get air with it LOL...! My daughter jumps here mini recon higher.

I find it difficult to get down to Robs but like to keep the LHS going also like to BS down there.

I did muddy doh!, my bad!

It is quite a good spot and nice to meet up with like minded people. Fingers crossed for the weather tomorrow.

The extenders were from eBay.. I am really pleased with the quality and they have very minimal play. Hopefully should handle like a rocket on rails that gets front end happy now! :D bit like my motorbike lol

How long have you had your savage for? I quite enjoyed running mine in..
