Hi just want to know how tight you have the servo saver,iv done mine so the botton of the colar is done up to the threads:confused:

Servo saver
 

I set mine same as yours but after a few runs out on the street it made it's way loose. I've now tightened it up a bit more than that. My next run with it will be worksop on sunday(hopefully). I'm hopeing it will be ok now.:)

its best to thread lock it . ive had mine come undone . not came loose since

good luck on sunday,look out for some of Team Shambles:thumbsup:,i will do mine when i start racing on the 8th:thumbsup:

servo saver
 

you have to thread lock them:thumbsup:

where have you got yours set to?

I think it was set at what manual said but it came lose 1st time out.
good job for thread lock.you need to thread lock everything on durangos
or they shake loose.We have sold our durango now.Got B max 2009:thumbsup:

im asking coz it doesnt say in the manual:woot:....the servo saver is the only metal on metal iv not threadlocked:woot:............."we sold our Durango".......did you take it in turns:thumbsup:

No ashley is the driver im the busy machanic,All ways somthing coming loose or snapping.:thumbsup:

Always snapping? What keeps snapping. I hit the wall @ Worksop and only bent things, snapped nothing!!

thats good to know as iv not turned a wheel for nearly 2 months and im going on sunday.........look out for an odly covered shell:woot:

Drive pins mainley,Also bearings keep popping out of front steering blocks,
we have had 3 do that and friend has done 2 the same.

had you shimmed it right?

we have seen ashs driving! do or die :p

i think i shimmed it right but i might not have,only followed manaul,I think the car dident suit ashleys driving style.:thumbsup:He is aggresive but it will come he,s only 13,got a lot to learn:confused:

he is good now, he will soon be at the top

hopefully thanks for the good comment mark.:thumbsup:

Aggresive driving sounds like me heavy on the throttle lol
My thumbs like on & off switch :p

I had moved the ring flush with the bottom of the threads after the servo-saver arm broke at the "V" area. But when I had it set that loose the ring literally ripped the threads off right at where the bearing sits. This area around the bearing seat is way too thin, must be about .005" thick. I bought a new aluminum piece, turned the ring up two rotations from being flush with the bottom so it grabs a thicker area and now I'm breaking the saver arms again. Each one of these pieces needs more meat to handle the stress. There definitely is not a space issue for such tight tolerances. I didn't have this problem for over two months but now every time I go out and run I loose steering.

I'm using a JR 8800S servo(105oz) and running on a high traction indoor clay track.
