hi

the "diff" problem exists since the savage turned up 2002 and was converted to brushless (or high power nitro engines). there are endless modifications of the savage diffs including the sliding blocks that were invented by advanced users long before hpi or traxxas put them into their factory diffs.
the usual reaction to diff damages was always to strenghten the diffs more and more. today e.g. cen diff mod or whatever mods are made to make the diffs stronger.

imo it is time to look at the problem from another perspective. more flexibility in the tranny especially the shafts would help. i am pretty sure good quality plastic shafts would help a lot to preserve damages on the diffs. in the case of a breakage replacing an outer shaft is much easier done and less time and money consuming than replacing the diffs. the tranny of the savage is just too "rigid" imho.

some nice high quality plastic shafts for the savage would be a very nice tuning part i would not hesitate to buy!

just my 2 cents

bye
