New from HPI: SAVAGE X SS KIT w/o Engine

Mar. 21, 2007 By Press Release

HPI Racing is the go-to place to get a Monster Truck in build-it-yourself kit form, and now we’ve expanded your options with the Savage X SS without engine! At the request of our veteran Savage customers, we’ve removed the engine from the Savage X SS kit and given it a price that won’t break your budget. So if you already have a high horsepower engine, this kit is the perfect opportunity to bolt it into the latest Savage X SS kit decked out with heavy duty hop-ups and upgrades.

To help handle all of the bashing you will throw at the Savage X SS, we’ve beefed up the already legendary toughness of the Savage chassis. The aluminum TVP chassis plates have extra strength in critical areas, and the motor plate is now constructed of thick 2.5mm 7075 aircraft quality alloy. The engine mount also has an adjustable nose support for the engine, designed to prevent the engine from moving during hard landings or crashes. Even the nylon skid plates and bumpers are beefed up for extra durability and sealed to prevent dirt from getting into the differentials. To beef up the braking, our dual stainless steel disc brake kit comes standard, featuring two vented stainless discs and a machined steel brake hub. An adjustable cam-type servo saver delivers quick steering response and added servo protection.

The Savage X SS has cast alloy differential cups with steel pin guides are standard on the front and rear of the truck, delivering unmatched durability and extending the standard maintenance interval of the diffs. All of the internal diff gears are shimmed for precise mesh, and we even shim the outdrive bearings and input shafts for extra precision. Heavy duty diff shafts, cup joints, drive shafts and dogbones are used for maximum strength and durability. And, a hardened steel spur gear with a matching ventilated “racing” clutchbell have been added for the ultimate in drivetrain strength, right out of the box. A high performance polished tuned pipe and high flow tube header to help maximize power output.

High grip Dirt Bonz tires are standard equipment; they’re 40% lighter than our standard Savage tires for tenacious off-road grip and quicker acceleration. Chrome Warlock wheels are standard, mounted on proven-tough 17mm cast alloy hex hubs and new steel nylock wheel screws with serrated fins that prevent the wheel nuts from vibrating off. And the great “X” features are there too… easy diff access, improved radio box, low CG chassis, nylon roll hoop, engine protection cage, adjustable turnbuckles, adjustable shock position, and an easy access transmission.

The Savage X SS without engine kit does not include electronics, so owners can customize their Savage exactly how they want it. A crystal clear polycarbonate trimmed body with pre-cut decals and window mask is included so you can lay down your own slammin custom paint job. So there you have it, the engineers at HPI Racing have once again provided you with a build-it-yourself kit that has all of the ingredients you need to make your own custom Ultimate Monster Truck. Just add your favorite engine!
