Ok, so I got a bunch of savage parts in today. Bulletproff diffs with xl bulkhead. GH al bulks, arms, flux dogbones and axles, etc....

Put one of the GH bulks completely together. Everything fit perfectly, save for the two holes that mount the bottom of the shock tower were not threaded correctly. Like the taps that cut the threads were worn out??? I ran a m4 tap in by hand and it finished the threads nicely. Everything else went well, so I am awaiting the other diff/bulk setup to arrive (ebay chop shop) so i can build the other end. Running stock arms and front hubs, with the integy xl hubs on the rear. Put those together on a set of arms and they fit perfectly. Also put the high speed idler in my flux tranny. That ratio better suits the 1717 motor on 6s lipo, IMO.

All these parts will likely go on my 5t savvy, more info on that truck in the 5t ponderings thread...
