    Savage X 4.6 slipper clutch eliminators, good idea or not?? 🤔

    I've just bought a savage x 4.6. It needs a new slipper clutch assembly, I realise this is supposed to protect your gear box but from what I've seen and read most people just crank the tension nut as tight as possible. I have seen slipper clutch eliminator kits. Has anyone fitted one of these...

    Spur gear/clutch bell question

    I’m running a HPI 16 tooth hardened clutch bell with a 49T plastic spur on my X4.6. No matter what I do I cannot get the gears to mesh flush with each other. The truck runs great and can do a standing back flip once it’s warmed up! I never really noticed this before and yesterday I did a...

    Savage X 4.6 losing fuel pressure and cutting out

    Hey guys. My Savage has been losing fuel pressure from the main fuel line going to the carb. It will run a few good powerful runs and pop wheelies then cut out and die. When I take the fuel line off the carb there is no fuel coming out of the line. It's like there has never been fuel run through...

    Hey guys, so as some of you may have seen on my other post, I need a collet to complete my savage clutch rebuild. The last one was incredibly worn and had a crack at the base of it.
