Savage X conversion thread - 04.23.2009, 11:53 PM

My Savage is going to under-go a conversion here soon... Just bought a 2075kv motor. It will run similar to an 8xl, but with a finned can, so hopefully cooler. Got that for $30. I also got some tires for $35. Nitro motor is going on E-bay soon, if I can get anything for it. Just sold my old phone tonight, made $70. My current cash is $70, but I was also planning on selling my rc18 bl, and my Xbox (which I am now debating...)

Thinking of running a plane esc with mech brakes. First thing I will need is a motor mount, a pinion, and battery trays. That is step 2 in the conversion. Looking for thoughts. FLM foward conversion, RCM conversion (both quite pricey), then there is the $30 Kershaw motor mount. Let me know of any others that are out there. As far as trays, Kershaw sells them for $47, but I think I can do better... Anyone know of a place? I need to order a pinion off tower, I am thinking 14/47 should be good.

Then there comes the driveline... I was thinking an all metal 2 speed... If you guys do not suggest that, I will probably just lock the truck in 1st.

Got a few things to put on E-bay. K4.1 star engine, and my stock tires along with my rc18 (p.m. me if you're interested in anything). Planning on a new body, and a wheelie bar from tower as well.

IMPUT APPRECIATED!
