And if you already have the similar ST-1, Why do you want an MT-4? So confused as to why you would have such similar RCs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah it's no where near a buggy it's closer to a truggy if anything I don't have a st1 I used too .. Some folks actually have a truggy and a monster truck with a centre diff and some folks have a stack of cars all simaliar I don't see why it's confusing as we all like different things .. If you like a monster truck to have a slipper that's cool it's just others might like both and running similar trucks means you can pinch a part here and there to get one going or have spares to hand that will fit both .. Either way it's a win in my book .. Edited April 26, 2016 by mydoddy69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff is not the cheapest but the satisfaction of making something of my trusty old savage that would have probably otherwise ended up in the bin makes it totally worth it in my opinion. Nice savage Neil, can I ask what else you have to complete the Alza setup? Ie, what battery trays, how the esc sits & what the extra pieces are in the chassis?

Ie, what battery trays, how the esc sits & what the extra pieces are in the chassis? Thanks dude, The upper plate at the rear is a custom made one that came with the tvp's that I bought used. The extra Alza parts in the chassis are: Servo plate http://shop.alza-racing.com/en/standard-flux/4-servo-plate-standard.html , Skid plate http://shop.alza-racing.com/en/xl-flux/17-skidplate-xl.html , A few of these http://shop.alza-racing.com/en/savage-nitro/23-chassis-brace.html , The Shocks in the picture are rear shocks from a DEX8 but that picture was taken a few months ago and things have changed since. The shock towers are from Innovative-RC, the battery trays are from a Team Durango DEX8 as is the receiver box. The center diff is made up from Team Durango DEX8 internals and casing with steel cross shafts and using a 50t steel spur gear from an Arrma typhon. The quality of the Alza parts it outstanding as is the Innovative-RC stuff. I could have bought a new truck but this is a lot more special due to the time and effort it has taken to build it and make it all work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
