Thank for your speedy reply but I am going to go with the Savox SW-0230MG Waterproof HV Digital Servo W/FREE ALUMINUM HORN BL instead since I know a lot of people that run this in there 3s ARRMA rigs!

Be careful with that aluminum horn. Remember for the 3s/4s truck the servo saver is built into the stock servo horn. With that aluminum horn, all crash stress will be passed right to the servo gears. If you had a Steel Gear servo, it may last a while, but that MG is a brass gear servo. Better than plastic, but still, it will wear out quick with no SS.

Thanks for the tips but since I already bough the Savox SW-0230MG Waterproof HV Digital Servo W/FREE ALUMINUM HORN!! Is there anyway to modify it so all the stress does not go through the servo gears?

Just use the trucks round plastic servo saver instead of the metal servo horn.

Thanks a lot for your help brother! Also, any recommendations on what weight oil I should use for my front and rear diffs for the 3s Typhon?

I used 10k in my Granite, and my 6s typhon.

Bought a combo 2 3S batteries. Don't fit with the body on unfortunately which I was warned of but didn't listen well enough lol recommendations on batteries? Good 3S packs to run together or single 4 or 6's?

You can raise the back of the body fairly easy.. Wich makes room for bigger packs..

This is how high my 2× 3s 6500mah are when stacked on top of each other.. Raised rear body mounts makes my body to fit..
