looks great, you test it out yet?

Looks very nice. Your Traxxas 2055 high torque servo isn't going to turn those Gaint Trac's. It may have 80oz@6V on a good day. I understand building on a budget, but your servo is not the place to save money. You can find used Hi-tec 945mg's on ebay super cheap. If they are DOA, just send them to Hi-tec for repair. They are very good about that. I sent in three trashed 945's and got back three new servos for the cost of three cases and shipping. Less than $40. I would get rid of the servo saver also, but that's just me.
Anyway your build looks good, I see a stick build coming for me.:)

just got my parts and can't wait to install them

Tekin Rebel 2
4 foot of deans ultra wire
2 - 9 tooth pinion gear
