I would say flux as well, but my savage diff experience is less than positive... Seems like al bulks/case and the "bullet proff" diffs would cure that. The savage tranny loos strong, the motor mount is very strong, and the battery boxes are versatile. Put some truggy wheels and tires on it and it would be a decent dual purpose basher/racer. The lighter wheels/tires would also cut down on strain on the arms, cvds, etc.

For ultimate bash worthiness my nod has to go to the lst2. It is pricey to build, but does not need much to be a solid truck. The muggy is also good, if you replace the stock chassis (I still run stock, but am not that hard on it.)

Truggies are kinda boring to me, the lack the "soul" that a monster truck has. Just too stable and low to the ground for my tastes. That is why I like the muggy, turns well due to the center diff, and the weight is lower so it handles well, but it still has MT suspension and can get over more stuff than a truggy can.
