That truck was in a bad crash. I lost signal and it went straight into a curb. The pinion and spur is not that well aligned and I had to play with it a bit to have them run somewhat smooth. The conversion kit came with a slipper, but I took it out because the spur gear had melted. The spur gear for the Savage is working good so far and it is not a solid center kind of like the one in my BPP truck. When I had the center diffs in my buggy and truck it would still do wheelies, but the unloading to the front wheels afterwards was really messing the tires very fast. Mega makes a strong motor. The magnets are strong like the Neu motors, but the Megas have 6 poles and will draw less AMPs. Keep in mind that electric motors have the uniqueness of getting power from torque.
