HPI Savage 21 Steel Hinge Pins with E-Clips SSAV1101 by GPM  [SSAV1101]

Savage 21 steel hinge pin upgrade

This aftermarket set supplies steel hinge pins secured by E-clips for the HPI Savage 21 platform, sold as model SSAV1101. The kit is provided as six pairs, supplying matched pins and retaining clips for replacing worn pivot hardware on suspension arms and link mounts.

Hinge pins serve as the pivot for suspension arms and link attachments; replacing bent or fatigued pins restores correct alignment and reduces unwanted movement in steering and suspension. The steel material is more resistant to bending than softer stock parts, and the E-clip retention allows quick removal for routine servicing.

Installation is a simple, direct swap: remove the old clip and pin, slide the new pin into place, then secure with the included E-clip making sure it is fully seated in its groove. After fitting, cycle the suspension to confirm smooth travel and no binding. Keeping spare E-clips and pins on hand is recommended for regular off-road running.
