is a airtronics 94360 (125oz-in .07sec) enough servo for a t4? i know its "good" for the buggy, but is it really "enough" for a 2wd truck?
should be just fine...

with no weight.
car is sitting at 1500 grams.
It seems like hardly anyone follows the ROAR rules anymore but the ROAR min weight for 2wd stadium truck is 60oz = ~1700g. Your 200g difference would mean 28 1/4 oz (~7g) squares! If you had this huge a weight differential it's better in my opinion to buy a heavier lipo pack than to add so much weight.

My 94452 (96 oz-in / 0.09 sec) doesnt seem like enough for my truck, it doesnt want to turn full lock while on the track, but off ground it does. Is the only reason im asking, and the steering is free with no binding

As smokinu said below, it is the b44 body trimmed up a little bit to fit. The standard b4 body would not fit over the sides of the chasiss because the t4 chassis is longer. The b4 bulldog body is molded to fit perfectly on the b4 chassis, while the b44 body looks better, IMHO, and can fit on any size chassis.

4-40. Possibly run it through a few times to clear out the whole a bit.

Jake S;
Sounds like the servo saver over riding while on track. Look to see if the spring is BLACK, if not get one and try again. The silver and Black springs have the SAME P/N, so you might need to sort through your HS's supply. I know in our SC10's we had to glue the servo saver together to stop this same problem.

IDK, maybe it's me, but are big bore shocks really a necessity? I feel my car handles great just the way it is.
