so I'm looking into getting a new servo before trying the old one in the new car. I am comparing the Savox SH-1350, SH-1257MG, and Futaba S9650. The 1257 has the best specs. The Futaba is the most expensive. Based on the recommendations here I'm leaning towards the S9650. For the servo saver I could do what you suggest and drill the holes but that didnt go so well last time I tried it and I ended up getting a new one and one of these CRC4088 Braces.. I'd rather stay with pre-drilled and use this brace again. With that said I guess I should get the KIM114? I think thats what I already have though on the old Savox.

Yes mine is good. It has a tiny bit of play side to side and I also use 2 ride height gauges when setting the rear ride height. It makes it much easier to get set equal left to right. There doesnt seem to be a bind in the bearings when free spinning the axle without a pinion on. I have always felt like the motor drives one wheel harder than the other on all solid axle diffs. Judged by the non scientific holding one wheel at a time and see how the other spins under power.

Does CRC still make these? I can't seem to find them on their site.

Question about Zero Flex Chassis
So I was looking into the new CK25 and am wondering if the Zero Flex chassis is worth it or not? What is the reason someone would go to that instead of the stock chassis?
We have two tracks that run on the new CRC black carpet. One is 36 x 100 and the other is 48 x 80. I run 13.5 blinky stock with the purple stripe tires which work well for both tracks so far..
Any advice would be appreciated..

Try that first. Z-flex may be overkill for blinky.

Started assembling the CK25 last night and have a question on the pod. When mounted to the chassis in the manner described in the instructions it very slightly raises the pivot point where the ball mounts to the rear carbon plate. I mean slightly like not visible with the eye. This causes the rear plate to rock slightly side to side when assembly is set on the glass. It rocks side to side and a visual check appears the pod and chassis are close. Is it normal that it would be slightly raised? All the parts center pivot mount are snug to the chassis plate and not weird. Is the ball different from side to side? if one lip was bigger the instructions didnt call it out and I havent tried it reversed yet, I was just wondering. I could put a very thin shim under the ball on top of the bottom plate to clear it up but it is very slight.

3rd chassis option
Just noticed a 3rd Chassis option listed in the CK25 Manual. Not listed on the CRC Website. Hmmm, Japan Spec perhaps? Tailored for 2s-21.5?

Make sure all your screws on the bottom or flush with the carbon. I had an issue with the stock chassis holes not being countersunk deep enough.
