If you like al arms I am sure it is the hot ticket, but I do not like al arms. Plus it is fun to figure stuff out.

Firstly.. i have only heard gd things about the FLM Kit... and considering this savage im making isnt for mental jumps... i would probably consider it...
but i am against alloy arms for the obvious usual reasons...
BUT BUT BUT... maybe the extra half inch you get from the FLM Arms may actually allow the LST Hubs to work as the extended arms will give enough room for the CVDs???
What do you think linc??? obviously we wanted to do this on the cheap... but do you that would work?

Yeah, the main benefit from doing this is to get a bigger stronger axle, preferably with bigger stronger wheel bearings. Addl width is not really a huge concern of mine, cause we will only end up with about 1/2" more per side when using the lst2 cvds. Not sure if the flm kit retains the same wheel attachement as the stock savage, but from what I have read the stock savage wheel attachment is undesirable as it breaks under stress.
