Richen the LSN a little and the wheelies will go away.

I love my Lst shocks .... I got mine from a fleabay chopshop for 35.00 for all 4 . Also I would buy the rc raven Lst springs . There just $ 9.00 shipped , and there way better then stock Lst springs . The stock Lst springs are just to weak on a savage IMO .... If wheelies are a problem try a XL chassis ... I love my overkill power on my stock 21/25 chassis , backflips with just a blip of input , and high speed wheelies

i ordered an integy evo 3 willy bar for my savage. I am still thinking about those LST2 shocks,
but the mods i have to get to properly install them is whats holding me up on that. I also took dudes suggestion
and richened the LSN a little and it helped the truck from stalling out when i give it throttle, but didn'treally help the wheelie issue.
i am going to go and get all the traxxas wheelie bars they make and see if i can modify one to fit the savage, and if i get oneto work on it
i will definately post the mod here for all to see. You would think HPI would have come out with a better wheelie bar by now.
but what fun would that be to actually be able to drive the truck on all four wheels!! i love giving it throttle and flippin it over on it roof every five seconds!!
