Interested in the answer to this too.  My son broke his Monster Beetle's servo saver the other day and I used one from another kit (Boomerang I think, it needed some holes made bigger) and that broke immediately.  

Would 51000 fit?  Or just buy another kit one?

I broke the white kimbrough one on my monster beetle and upgraded to the larger kimbrough. It will also help if you center your servo. I forget the size but i used schumacher titanium rods that were only about $5. Once i did both of those upgrades i never broke a saver again

I've only recently made the jump to the Big Kim SS, and I'm finding that it sits a little too far forward now...

Sooner or later I'm going to get a couple of of these:

I have the V1 type in my Bushy D now (and one in my Frog).  He made the V2 to accommodate larger SSs - the servo sits about quarter inch (~6mm) further back on the V2 as compared to the V1) .  I just haven't gotten around to buying them yet...

That's my Bushy D he has pictured on the Shapeways site...  Its an old picture, the Bushy D is bit more fluffy now...
