Well that sucks.

I just uninstalled the old uprights and carriers in the rear, along with the rear toe links. All together those parts weighed in at 4.6oz. The Integy replacements (single hub carrier like most 1/8 use) came out to 2.3oz... In other words HPI was stupid when they decided to allow infinitely adjustable toe in the rear.

Then I got around to weighing the truck. With old-ass Crimefighter MTs on HPI Warlock rims the truck came out to about 12.5lbs with everything except the body. Not too bad for an extended Savage with RX pack, brake setup that still needs to be removed, and with lots of material that can be shaved off!


SH Z-Car, Custom Crawler, 8s Savage, 12s XTM XLB 1/7 buggy, 4wd 4-link rear/IFS Pro4 truck, Custom Hyper 10 Short Course, Belt-Drive Mammoth ST 1/8 truggy, 4s 17.5 MM Pro HPI Blitz
