We are pleased to announce the release of our new TVPs and other products for the Savage. Let us know what you think. We have plans to machine another set of TVPs. We are planning on extending the stock style TVPs to 40mm. What are your thoughts on it?

The new TVP's look great. I would like to see them mounted on an actual truck and how the inline throttle servo plate comes into effect. I also see that now it's only a .5" drop for the trans. and engine. I thought it was going to be a .75" drop. Were there to many issues with the engine plate/braces? I know that with the .5" drop you might have to grind away some of the front engine brace so that the center(rear) dogbone won't rub. I was also wondering, are you going to offer a center skidplate to protect the brake disc? With the transmission sitting .5" lower it puts it at a very vonerable spot for some serious damage. The LCG TVP's I have seen(from other companies) offer a center skid with the kit for protection.

A stock extended version may not be a bad idea. Really any extended TVP is in demand for the Savage.

Looks like I'll be ordering a set for my second Savage project.

I forgot to mention also, ONLY $60 is a STEAL! I have to say when you(FLM)come out with a custom part I think it's great how you can keep the cost down and make things really affordable for us.

We did not totally drop the .75 TVP. We just set it to the side for now.
There was alot of issues to get it to work. And we felt at this point it would be best to keep costs down. If we got some feedback on it we may finish it.

And yes, there is a skid plate available for the LCG TVPs. We will be posting the pics of it and the mounts for the inline throttle servo ASAP. It will be a seperate part from the TVPs, basically an option part. We thought it was best to have options rather than paying alot for something you may not need.

Ya, that is soooo true. Buying a new set of the shitty Savage X tvps costs more than buying your stuff. I just recieved my stuff this afternoon, and even though i haven't installed it yet, i am already in love with them. *sigh*

I cannot believe how cheap you guys are able to keep your stuff and still have that lifetime warranty.

One of the reasons we can keep the cost down is because we are the manufacturer and there is no middle man. As for the warranty it just shows we stand behind our products.
