This purple aluminium gearbox housing is an aftermarket replacement for the HPI Savage Nitro Off Road Series. The alloy construction increases stiffness compared with the stock plastic housing and provides a rigid mounting point for spur and pinion alignment while supporting drivetrain parts during demanding use.
Intended use: chassis durability and consistent setup. An aluminium housing helps preserve gear mesh under load and simplifies spur height and bearing changes. The product is the housing only and does not include internal gears or bearings.
Fitting notes: remove the original housing and transfer bearings and gears into the alloy unit. Reuse compatible fasteners where possible and confirm mesh and backlash after assembly. Check screw lengths and any shims before final tightening to prevent motor pinion or spur interference.
This alloy gearbox housing is suited to builders who want a more rigid gearbox shell for steady drivetrain alignment on HPI Savage kits, delivering consistent behaviour without changing internal gear ratios.
