The JR-CHP-SAV-014 alloy centre skid plate has been produced for HPI Savage nitro off-road cars. Made from aluminium alloy with a purple coating, it replaces the standard centre plate and delivers a low-profile protective surface beneath the chassis. The component helps prevent abrasion and spreads impact loads from stones and uneven ground.
Fitting is carried out at the vehicle's existing mounting points and generally uses the original hardware where possible. The plate matches common Savage centre screw placements and installs between the gearbox and fuel tank on compatible chassis. During installation, check for interference with the exhaust system and fuel lines, and ensure there is no contact with moving items like pinions or shafts.
Used as an upgrade, the alloy skid plate adds modest mid-chassis reinforcement and provides a hardwearing contact face for frequent rough-terrain runs. It is a practical hop-up for drivers seeking tougher underside protection with minimal chassis modification.
This centre skid plate is a direct-fit aluminium option that offers reliable underside protection and slight chassis stiffening for HPI Savage nitro off-road vehicles.
