I was wondering if anyone has ever bought the low center of gravity chassis for there savage and if it made much difference. I have posted the link to it on tower.

I bought the FLM one, off ebay. Since found out you need a different engine plate and will not work with the roto start.

cybertech

I know they don't work with the rotostart. That kit there has the engine plate with it

I had one, and it worked great, but I don't race, so I'm selling it. If you want to buy it check out my ads. I got mine to work with the rotostart by taking my dremel and cutting down the rear brace thing.

cybertech

I wanna make it alittle more stable and I was thinking about getting one if it really made that much of a difference

A1Viper

It probably looks like BS coming from me, as I am trying to sell mine, but in all honesty, I did notice a big difference when I had them on. I never flipped.

cybertech

What model of savage were they on?

cybertech

No offense but I would buy brand new ones either way. I do thank you for your information.

A1Viper

Okay, yeah, they were on my Savage 25. They're nice if you're into racing.

cybertech

I'm just thinking in general the savage seems to tip alot and I would like to take some of that away.

A1Viper

Those'll do it then.

I have to say im very surprised to see that nobody has mentionned the plates Chronic makes yet. Check out this thread to see a sample of his LCG TVPs and if you want some drop him a pm. I have a set, my friend has a set, im getting more for my other savages, they are in my opinion tby far the best you can get.

im here.... this is my kinda thread...lol

chronics tvp's rock.. i have them, they are for racing, but he makes them to suit everyone, imine are exstended and handle like a dream!!, plus they are alot stronger than stock by far!!...

he prices depend on what you want, but...

they will be better for you and made to suit how you drive your truck!!, pm him, i love mine and a few guys on here roll with them!!...

cybertech

I can't wait to get my machining equipment and start making my own hop ups.

itsnotskidding

pm me anything you make that is cool, im a massive savage spender...lol

cybertech

LOL. Well what would be some good parts to produce that are in demand. I was thinking about getting my equipment together in about a month.

Byte the dust

What do you have in mind?

cybertech

Anything you can make on a mill or a lathe. I was just getting it so i can lighten my own parts and make stuff if I wanted.

A1Viper

Somebody needs to make a good, simple roll cage that will work with the stock chassis.

itsnotskidding

how about a good roll cage?... but for ext tvp's??...lol, id buy one!!...

erm... deisghn maybe a few arms that are longer?.. but with patterns in them, solid wheelie bars?.. anything realy...lol

HerrSavage

I want - and need - some rear Spurstangen eliminators...(Damn!! Sometimes I can only remember part names in one language but not the others......)

These:





Once I get ahead financially too, I want to buy several sets of Chronic's TVP's then sell them in Germany...

What we need is a Chronic TVP sticky thread where everybody can post pics of theirs.....

cybertech

What exactly would you want in a roll cage? If I get into it enouhg ill start a website and probably start making alot of stuff.

cybertech

Those little brackets pictured look like a very easy part to make. I would also like to get into engine modding. I am currently doing my research on it.

A1Viper

Something simple that works good. There's alot of crappy roll cages around and alot of them leave the engine vulnerable to roll-over/crash damage. I think it was Twisted Toys that makes the only real good roll cage, but it only works with his extended TVPs. Something that covers the engine head, but still allows you to use the glow ignitor easily.
