Gen4 Servo saver - 01.27.2006, 04:41 AM

Whats peoples opinions on the UE Servo Savers (stearing rack)?

After buying the Widetrac arms, was so amazed at the quality, can't resist UE now. :)

Is it noticable in performance? (Against stock)

I've got the pro-line servo saver. For a third of the price of the ue, I'd say it does a very good job

Yeah except the proline one's aren't made anymore.

The UE is hand's down one of the first and best thing's you really should upgrade on a maxx. The steering will be straight to the point, stock steering assembly just won't cut it.

You can get them on ebay for about $25.

Yes I know you can get used proline's, but if you ever break one, you will have to find them. As they are discontinued, the availability will decrease after time, thus makeing it harder to find replacement part's.

Do it right the first time and get the ue one. You will not regret it.

Ok, just to clear things up. You CAN get NEW pro-line servo savers, I know - I've got one! No they're not as good as the ue, but for the price they do a good job. It just depends on how much your willing to spend.

Where you get new ones? There are some still around but they are not made. So you can get some new off ebay but that is about it. Ue is a great servo saver. I have had the proline and the ue. Ue is better than proline. It makes the truck drive much better. I think they are well worth the money.


Peace!

There are some like gpm steering assembly's, but they don't got the intigrated spring system. So you still have to use servo horn's with a spring in them. Besides, the quality of gpm isn't all that good.

I would just go with the UE, alot of people always ask if theres a cheaper alternative, but its just better to get the UE cause its alot better quality and you just "set it and forget it" lol

Actually, with this servo saver that is not true. You need to maintain it, clean and lube once in a while. If sand get's stuck in the spring and you run it like this, it will cause wear.
