Taken the plunge...............

I have some battery trays from my Kershaw BL conversion kit, I'd like to get rid of the 2 speed tho its so heavy. Maybe a centre diff setup?

...battery trays are too easy...i just use some folded 1mm alloy sheet...plans and everything up at E-Savage.com...I mean the EP crowd has been borrowing ideas from the GP scene (RE: the E-Savage) for ages so maybe its time we paid something back...

MTBTIM:::Thanks mate...You can see my WHOLE gallery with this link...Might be something you like ;)

hi

let me see if i got this right. this chassis above will take the normal gp axles of the savage. doing this will bring us in the weight range of the usual gp to ep converted savages, which is about 2-4 pounds more than the e savage.
so then i should put a e savage center gear box in there instead of a modified savage gp center gear box right? this center e savage gear box has plastic gears and is designed to transfer the power of two 550 brushed motors in a light 9 pound e savage. and now it should transfer the power of BL setup for a converted gp savage, that weights about 50% more and is equipped with a big neu and 16 cells or the like?

...The drivetrain will take what you throw at it for sure...Especially when mated with the GP front and rear diffs...

wouldn't the e savage center gear box then be clearly the weak spot in the whole tranny?

i might be wrong but and one could try it but i would be very positively surprised if this works.
