Thanks MC, I know you like the lst.
Yeah, the losi hubs are much better design than the savvy stuff. In fact i think the lst is just better all ways round, save for the steering setup.
I just got the cen hubs in, and the hingepins. Arms and cvds are still in transit.
The cen hubs would not be a good choice to mod for use with the savage arms, both the arm and the hub would have to be trimmed and not enough meat would be left on either.
So hopefully the cen arms will fit the savvy bulks well. And looking at the cen lower bulk hingepin length I think the cen arms will fit perfectly between the stock savage hingepin braces. I am crossing my fingers.
I also received another shorter 4mm hingepin with the cen pins. Must be used for the upper arm to hold it to the bulkhead. It is 4mm diameter and has a nice locknut to hold it one. And it is the perfect length to hold the lst2 hub to the savvy lower arm. Nice, as I was going to have to find a 50mm long 4mm pin with eclips or something to hold that area together.
I will have to make a parts list when I am done, should someone else want to attempt this mod! Pretty easy to do, trimming the pins and making the braces is all of the fab work.
