Default Front diff lock servo

Today I was having a casual run, going over some obstacles in my backyard. And then I noticed that my car was making a sound when I went to shift my front lock in. I took off the body and took this video of the noise. Would anyone be able to tell me if I can replace the servo or if I can get an aftermarket one for it. Thanks.

From what I’ve been reading the Traxxas micro servo is the only one that’s a direct bolt in replacement, if you set up your hacked fly sky did you set the endpoints on your servos like he said towards the end of the video? Overthrowing these mini servos is a big part of them failing, that and they’re not that great in the first place.

I’m not sure about Traxxas micro servos but you can get rebuild kits for other Traxxas servos, might be something to check into if you want to save a few bucks.

While this can be an option, I find that most Traxxas servos will have fried electronics that can't be rebuilt :(
