FLM Savage - LST Shock Mount Kit

[jhautz]

I'm not getting that crazy with mine. I have been running mine with as close to a stock setup as I could get for a brushless conversion. Its only got a BK12020 and a 1940/7 on 5s a123 and 5s lipo. I'm sticking with the power source for this update, Just getting the new tranny forward chassis so I can get the batteries off of the side of the TVP. I hated that setup, but couldnt come up with a better solution. The FLM conversion is genius IMO. I may have to reconfigure my a 123 packs to fit in the new space between the chassis plates. Maybe just one big 5s2p brick.

And the LST shock conversion is just to get a little better handeling and durability. The long stock shocks are a crappy setup IMO. Other than that, the truck has been all but bulletproof running bone stock drivetrain. I might upgrade to a metal spur as well now that Mike has the super hard pinions. I do tend to strip the spurs quite often.


Here is what mine looks likew now. They are old pictures from when it was new, but it still looks exactly the same except dirtier. I'll post some pics when I finsh this latest upgrade as well.

EDIT: BTW... I did the Savage as an experiment to see if it would hold up to my normal bashing without any of the major/expensive upgrades like my Emaxx took. On my emaxx , by the time I upgraded evrything to the point that it would stand up to daily bashing, it cost me so much I was afraif to bash it. It was kinda pointless. Lets just say the emaxx has been parted out and sold off for a long time now and I never looked back and the Savage is still running with a completely stock drivetrain and chassis without any major problems except a couple bent shock shafts. (hence the lst shock upgrade). Love the Savage as a daily basher!!! couldnt recomend it more.
