thanks alot guys. you have helped me alot. see you guys sunday.
btw how much torque does the stock steering servos put out together
They are 80oz of torque each....so 160oz.....they are quite slow and sluggish though. They will work to get you started but in the future you will want to upgrade to a high quality single servo that is a bit faster.
On the subject of better servo...be sure to upgrade the stock radio to one with servo end point adjustment, or the new servo won't last as long due to overtravel at full left or right steering.
A better radio does a lot of other great things for you, as well.

I would have to agree with this. I never had a problem until i put the 23mm adapters. I broke three axle's in two weeks.:mad: Im suure my driving had a little to do with this also.
but with the same driving style you weren't breaking axles with the stock setup, correct?

That would be correct.
Then change your style then LOL.. I can see one problem and that is if you over tighten the 5mm bolt. But I guess I am the only one that has no complaints lol...
As for all these upgrades. I have found that a few of them go hand in hand with other upgrades or changes. Like the servo,yea great upgrade alone. But a new radio will finish it off.
But I have seen that when you start to upgrade. Changing out a part because is might be stronger. Will show a weakness in another part and so on. I have seen this more with trucks that have alot of alum parts on it. Those are stong enough to take a beating,but the plastic parts it is bolted to are not strong enough and they break.
update. i got the truck yesterday and it runs great. went to als and bought a wing mount and a wing. thanks for all your help.
You gotta love Al's!
Good luck with that Revo!

who told you about those lsp tires? those are the best tires for my driving style. they hookup better than any tire i have purchased including holeshots.
i loved my LSP tire indoor at LHR they hooked up soo much it was crazy.

Dude you hated them, you were crying because you would roll in every corner...
On the other hand, I like those and responses best.
responses were hooking up pretty good but since i have stock steering servos the lsp tires let the rear slide out a little helping the steering.
