Can anyone tell me what this is, i can't find where it goes back on my savage, I'm sure its some sort of spacer or shim, i have looked all over for where it goes back and I'm frustrated:angry:

I know I have seen a similar part on my revo. To me it looks like an a-arm shim. Usually to move the a-arms either forward or backward for more or less wheelbase length.
 
That is for the bumper arm for the savage.. ill take a pic for you, basically these can fall off very easily and i personally zip tied them to the shock tower so if they do fall off they will hang there and ill be able to slid them back on .

Basically if you follow the bar that goes from the upper half of the bumper that connects to the shock tower that clip just holds it in.

Thanks dude, It was Very obvious once i knew where to look........now if i only had my shocks
 
no problem, ever since i put them on I've had no issues with them at all. And also i would actually frequently check them every drive because those rods also hold in the "arm bars" as i personally call them. they hold in the swing ams you know ? and if those bars fall out then youll probably end up breaking even more stuff or something. so just watch out but have fun !
 
Yup it is the bumper c-clip that holds it on the back side of the shock tower. Personally I put a screw through the tower into that sucker and it cures the popping out and arm twisting.
 
^ thats a good idea I'm going to consider doing that.
