Hpi savage spur gear help

[brunom97]

Well I bought a spur gear of eBay and I have an hpi savage ss but I have noticed where would I put the slipper clutch for the spur gear what can I do

 

[BOUTCH]

Why didn't u ask the seller this question before buying it, but would be curious to see the other side of the spur.

 

[brunom97]

Please help me find a solution and plus these sellers don't know what they are selling as long as they make their money

That's the back side so what can I put

Hey bud I'm not exactly sure but it looks like you only have part of the whole assembly. It looks like the spur gear from a Robinson racing HPI FLUX Performance gen 3 slipper unit....can you show us the other side?.....or better yet check this webpage out and see if anything looks familiar!

I don't think you can mount it without the rest of the unit.

 

[brunom97]

So I'm guessing this is for the flux?

 

[Alexander_0_1]

No, you can still use it, it's just designed to handle the power of the FLUX, electric power come on a lot quicker than nitro power...I don't think they use clutches like nitros do!

And if it is the gen3 spur your going to need the rest of it.

these sellers don't know what they are selling as long as they make their money

Then don't buy from them..

But I might be wrong in the type of spur it is, you might just get away with using one of these

alexander it has to be the robinson spur the pic matches right up

 

[Alexander_0_1]

Ya that's what I sought too but if you look on the Robinson racing webpage the centre hole is a lil different.....just a bit smaller

Maybe that's just a bad pic on the Robinson webpage though.....I hope I didn't confuse you brunom97

Wow! nobody ever calls me by my name.. I must be in trouble...LOL

Yeah, it doesn't look like any of the RRP spurs for the savage:

Not sure what it is. Like others mentioned, think you could post a pic of the back?

NEvermind, found one like it on ebay
Probably front? Not sure:

Other side:

I'm not sure how you incorporate the slipper pad at all with this...

 

[Alexander_0_1]

Wait a minute, it fooled me at first, but I think it's a GPM savage spur!, and I don't know how to mount it!

his pic is the front/closest to engine!, the back should match up to his stock slipper!

Yup I'm going with GPM, and it looks sintered like the older ring gears for the savage x diffs

I don't think GPM makes this one anymore though.....since I've only seen black ones/but they could be painted

 

[olds97_lss]

I just went through every image on google after search for
savage "steel spur"
and the only images that show a spur exactly like this one are the listing on ebay I got the images from up above, item 161026039307.

The GPM one shows the stamping for the pad to stick to:

Damn, and the location says TR turkey.

I thinking this might be one of those parts you hear about, you know a knock off!

 

[BOUTCH]

The spur you bought doesn't have the groves the slipper pad, I don't think your going to be able to use it but the link that olds97 posted has the groves for the pad...

 

[brunom97]

Yup same exact one I bought from turkey to but ur saying it bolts right on without any slipper clutch?

 

[Alexander_0_1]

You got me? (Scratching my head!)
I has to have some type of slipper unit to mount it or it will just spin on the driveshaft.
It weird that the people selling the spur don't offer a slipper for it!

 

[sur3fir3]

nvr mind

 

[BOUTCH]

I would just plain and simple contact the seller and ask him...because I've never used a spur like this one before with no place for the slipper pad to sit in...I'm looking around sites to find some kind of info but nothing. maybe not looking at the right place but eh, I'm trying lol...because if you would see me right now...I have a HUGE question mark over my head :\
