I love these "Frankenstein" type of mods. It's cool to take the best parts of different vehicles and assemble them together (especially when they can fit without any major mods to the individual parts). I have been doing this on my Jammin GT.

Yep, take the best of the rest and make a great basher!!! I really think the lst setup is ok, but the cen cvds are huge. Being able to run the stock savvy arms, with lst2 c hubs and cen knuckles would be great. The cen knuckles look very strong, and a set of al lst2 c hubs would make a solid setup for large heavy tires and jumping. This may help with diff cup clearance too, since the savvy arms are slightly longer than the cens.

I was so excited about this mod and.. i bought the cen cvds. Really hope that the savage arm-lst c hub-cen spindle-cen cvds would work. Just waiting for updates from you linc to start ordering other parts.

WOW, the CEN cvd's are huge! By a chance would they possibly work on a e-revo with Mike's hardened steel diff cups?

I could always work around the pin, but not the length.

That's Awesome linc. Those CVD's seem to be the only thing that could handle my setups. I remember in my maxs days, I paid about $100 for RCalloys to make me 10mm Stainless CVDs. Great Job man!..
