Default Evader EXT servo saver issues

My son has a Duratrax Evader EXT. We have gone through three servos in the last four months, the last one being a metal geared one. Granted, they have all been cheapies (even the metal gear on was a tower hobbies brand). But when the entire truck only cost $80, I have a hard time spending $50+ on a servo.

I've greased the servo saver, even cut a coil of the spring to try to loosen it up. Is the design inherently flawed? Any suggestions or tricks? I don't want him to loose interest in RC, because everytime we go out it seems something breaks. I'm almost ready to look for a cheap roller and toss the Evader!

Sorry for the rant, guess I need to find another servo.

Guess There aren't many Evaders out there. Or at least none with this problem.
