The digital servos should draw less current than the factory servo. I have the same steering servo as you and it works fine with the 6v battery, BUT I am not running two in parallel for steering. SO, you might have to change your battery. There might be enough difference between the SAVOX servos and the factory ones. I have no clue. I do know that the SAVOX servos are super smooth and SUPER fast.

If the battery is fully charged, the servos should work just fine. Did you try with one steering servo at a time?
 
Try one servo at a time, on the same channel/port to isolate the issue between receiver, battery, servo..Could just be a bad servo.

If both servos work alone on the same channel, then it could be a battery issue (doubt it)
