The HPI Venture SBK Scale Builders Kit allows builders more options by eliminating the body, wheels, tires and electronics you may not need, while including a host of sought-after upgrades that increase the performance potential of the truck. The Venture is known for its incredible handling, realistic drivetrain layout and durability. The Venture SBK delivers all of that and more - with the flexibility to create the scale masterpiece you have always dreamed of!   

Great Options Included 
The Venture SBK includes a selection of highly desired performance upgrades that helps the truck perform even better on the trail than before! 

Front Universal Driveshafts 
Steel universal driveshafts add extra steering angle to help get the Venture out of tight spots with zero binding, are tougher than the standard dogbone, and are also rebuildable. 

Aluminum Lower Links 
Thick 6mm links are anodized to match the Venture shocks, so they add great looks as well as increased performance on the trail. 

4-Link Rear 
Increased articulation at the rear of the truck adds to the sure-footed nature of the Venture, improving its rear grip for better side climbing and enabling it to get over those really tough obstacles. 

Axle Weights 
Adding extra weight directly to the axles, these brass weights help increase traction exactly where it's needed, and they're also completely hidden from view, so they take nothing away from the scale looks of the truck.
