Default 501x stock servo saver

yes I have heard people dont use the stock servo saver because
it makes the steering too slugish, but I still use it.

I suppose it works better with a digital metal gear servo like
I have been using.

A guy I know used shumacher ball cups and didnt use the servo saver.

Have any of you did this also?

I want to take the servo saver off my car. I have a 94357.

What do the Schumy ball cups do?

Nothing just more tougher and you dont have to use the stock servo saver.
Without a servo saver the stock ball-cups will come loose and pop-off after a big
jump. I like everything this car is made of. Nice screws, nice everything.

Get a Kimbrough small servo saver, and is perfect for the job.
