Also- I like to run servo savers but I don't like the stock one it wanders too much-doesn't always return to center. I'm going to use the large xray servo saver. It works very well in my 2w buggy with zero slop.

Also take a close look at the rear inner ball studs at full stuff. They can hit the mounting plate. To fix this you can add 2mm spacers to the mounting plate to raise it up and also 2mm to the ball studs to get back the stock geometry.
I've got to get the Exotek steering rack as well, the front end of my car has developed a good amount of slop. As for the servo saver i ended up using the stock one and cranking the nut down, but i might as well just use a regular servo arm.

As for the rear ball studs, does anyone notice a ill effect of them hitting on full compression? I could imagine it could toss the car around on off kilter landings, or really bumpy parts of the track. I think i might fix this issue first and see how it does at the track this weekend.
