Product Benefits: This HPI rubber shielded bearing kit adds sealed protection against dirt, dust, and debris for HPI Racing Nitro MT2 .18SS. Choose rubber shielded bearings over metal shielded bearings when protection and durability matter more than the lowest possible rolling drag.
Fitment Note: Match each included bearing size to the removed factory bearing, press bearings in squarely, and check for smooth movement before running the RC model. This kit is model-specific for the listed RC model/platform; verify your OEM/model number before ordering and before installation.
Reason to Purchase: Choose rubber shielded bearings when sealed protection against dirt, dust, and debris plus durability in outdoor or dusty use matters more than the lowest possible rolling drag of metal shielded bearings.
Review the bearing-kit details below before ordering.
Vehicle versions, chassis revisions, and model-year configurations can differ.
