Lowered battery tray for Savage -
09.12.2005, 10:12 PM
Hi,
I have finally managed to fit the lowered battery tray to my savage. I am now able to use the mechanical brake for the savage but have lost reverse. Unfortunately, it will be a week or two before i can test this truck as I am overloaded with work. Regards, Joe Ling |

Great idea that may work on my e-revo conversion, looks great
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise |

Looks good!
I am working/tinkering on a custom CF chassis, for a new savage to be.. Which is less wide than yours, i wanted to do something simular, but the 80mm of width the TVP's have got is just too much imo. Or did you find a body that covers it? I've got this nifty plan that should be able to use some kind of tvp, and which is less wide.. When i am at it, i'll throw in a centerdiff as well. Pics of it will follow.. |

Hi,
Sorry for missing in action for last 2 weeks. Trying to get 2 big projects going (oil & gas engineering services). Overworked & underpaid. Anyway, I hav just tested the truck for 1/2 hour using 15T pinon on 49T spur on 5S lipo & the feigao 7XL. Very impressive indeed. I have also installed light weight gears in the geabox & a heavy duty 2 speed mechanism. The battery tray held up ok but I felt that 3mm aluminium would be better still (mine is only 2mm). The suspension of the truck is too soft so the handing was not as what I expected. I need to learn more about suspension setup. The stock body does a poor job of concealing the battery trays. In fact, the trays are not covered at all. The HUMMER (spelling?) body is wide enough but sits too tall because the front LST shocks need to be accommodated. Serum, do tell us more about your project. I am highly interested. Regards, Joe Ling

I was about to say, nice LST shocks! :eek:
Good work on the tray, looks awsome. Very professional. |
