The JR-CHP-SAV-014 alloy centre skid plate is intended for HPI Savage nitro off-road vehicles. Made from aluminium alloy with a purple finish, it replaces the factory centre plate and provides a low-profile protective surface under the chassis. The plate reduces abrasion and helps spread contact loads from rocks and uneven terrain.
Installation uses the existing mounting points on the vehicle and normally fits with stock hardware. The plate aligns with common Savage centre screw locations and installs between the gearbox area and the fuel tank on compatible chassis. During fitting, check clearances to exhaust and fuel lines and ensure there is no interference with moving parts such as the motor pinion or driveshafts.
As a hop-up, the alloy plate offers modest mid-chassis reinforcement and a durable contact surface for frequent off-road running. It is a simple upgrade for drivers who need better underside protection without major chassis changes.
Use this centre skid plate when you want a direct-fit aluminium option that improves underside protection and adds slight chassis stiffness for HPI Savage nitro off-road machines.
