I blew the internals of the center diff and did not have the parts.

Good day all, I'm expecting delivery of my new GTP2e today from nitrohouse.
I am gonna run a mamba monster max with 2200kv motor. Can anyone direct me to a decent steering servo for 50/50 bashing and racing. To start I will run a lower end 2.4 radio and reciever. Any help would be appreciated.

I see a lot of good stuff about Savox servos now that they are officially distributed and supported in the US. Give one of those a try.

Has anyone experimented with the RC-Monster Slipperential in their 1/8 GT? I will be using one in my conversion since it's already in the buggy. I will probably run it quite tight, just keep it for a little extra drivetrain protection.

Thanks, I'll look into the savox servos'. The specs look really nice. And the price looks even better.

All metal gear, double BB, 208oz of torque and 0.13 sec response, not bad for under $50 shipped.
I'm planning on trying one when I build up my IGT for Rally Car driving.

I ended up breaking another front upright (other side this time) during the warm up laps for the first heat. I clipped a board again, grrrr. But that's the only thing that broke all day. Luckily I had a spare.
I have learned if you race a DM1 make sure to have spare front uprights. It may hold true for GTP cars also as they use a similar upright. What happens is the pillow ball pulls out and snaps the upright. At least they are pretty easy to replace.

danketchpel - PERFECT! Thanks for taking the time to show and explain that to me, it helps a lot!!
Sweet looking DM-1 you have there. I plan on going Tekin myself. That doesn't look like the Tekno conversion. Are there other ones out there? Can you please tell me what you used.
Thanks a million... again.
