Raising the servo should fix your clearance problem. What do you use for a servo saver?

not sure what a servo saver is

Thats the plastic piece that is on your steering servo.

servo saver
 
a servo saver is a link between your servo and your steering linkage - ( usually plastic ) the servo saver takes all the hard impacts and ( with internal spring type movement ) keeps the servo from stripping its internal gears - hard to describe what it does in words - but you definately need to have one or you will definately do in your servo - metal gear or not -

Did you make that esc mount yourself? I know that I have seen something similar to that a while ago but cant seem to find them anymore.

My friend made it for me. It's shaped like an L bracket. He drilled the holes to bolt on where the 2nd motor was. I just put some velcro on the bottom. It works perfect, and looks prety good to.

The spacer is a good idea. We use to include spacers but discovered that most people preferred to use the rubber grommets that come with aftermarket servos. If you have these they would take care of it.

It looks like you could also shift the packs to the back cell spot on the chassis and avoid the servo (run the strap through the slot 2 spots back from the front for a tight fit)

Cool thanx. Once I get my diffs from ebay I can drive it more than a day without something breaking.

rc4x4nut 01.28.2005 10:55 AM

That looks like a pretty good deal. I am waiting to see if any UE diffs show up on ebay. If not then I will piece together my own set.

I bought a used e-maxx with a bunch of UE drivetrain parts in it. It was a great deal! I saved several hundred and the UE parts had been only run for two months with the stock titan motors. It's in great shape!

rc4x4nut 01.28.2005 11:18 AM

MMMM - I take it from your post that you may sell?

MMMM 01.28.2005 05:27 PM

No, I'm just saying how you can save money by buying it used.

rc4x4nut 01.28.2005 05:50 PM

Cool.

ryanvm777 01.29.2005 04:28 PM

Mike, do I need to buy anything else for these diffs ? Any gears or anything? What else do I need to buy so my truck stops breaking? I need to show off my truck but I can't because it keeps breaking. I need to show those nitro's what a flashlight runner can do!!!! Make me a list and I'll check it twice. lol. What do I need to buy from you? Check out my new shock towers I think they will go nice with my carbon fiber chassis. Thank you Mike and www.rc-monster.com for making my truck PERFECT.

MaxxFusion 01.29.2005 05:24 PM

Looks like those diffs are complete.
