I recommend the HobbyKing one. HK15298B. A tad slower @ 6v with 0.18, but is rated 18kg @ 6v. I have used one for about a year. Works great.

Go for a bigger torque one, like Turnigy one...

TrackStar TS-910 Digital 1/8 Truggy/Monster Truck Steering Servo 66g / 30.6kg / 0.14sec

you need at lease 25 kgcm for 2.2 rig.

it is going in a twin hammers with proline hammer tyres on it which are quite small for 2.2 tyres , also im running unlocked diffs with 500k oil as its used for speed racing and bashing more like a buggy type aplication , its the only servo in the rig and im going to fit a 5a 5v ubec on 2s and a servo saver horn , the reason i ask is the servo is costing £20 gbp new ? so i wanted to know realy if its any good for this aplication ? thanks greatly for your input and help

In that case you can go for the same series but lower torque but higher speed one...
