Overview
The Traxxas X-MAXX Front and Rear Body Mounts (TRX7715) are essential chassis spare parts designed specifically for the legendary Traxxas X-Maxx 4WD brushless monster truck range. Whether you're running a Traxxas X-Maxx Belted or X-Maxx Ultimate model, these body mounts are critical components that secure your truck's body shell to the chassis frame, ensuring stability and proper alignment during high-performance driving. For RC enthusiasts across the UK looking to maintain, repair, or upgrade their X-Maxx monster truck, these genuine Traxxas body mounts offer the reliability and precision engineering you expect from the world's leading RC vehicle manufacturer.
Body mounts are fundamental to the structural integrity of your RC monster truck. Over time, through intense bashing, jumping, and aggressive driving, these components can wear out or become damaged, affecting body alignment and overall vehicle performance. Having a quality replacement set like the TRX7715 ensures your X-Maxx maintains proper body positioning and aerodynamic efficiency. These mounts work in tandem with your truck's chassis to absorb impacts and vibrations while keeping the body shell securely fastened, which is especially important when pushing your brushless RC monster truck to its limits on UK trails and bash tracks.
Traxxas is globally recognised as the innovation leader in high-performance RC vehicles, and their spare parts are engineered to the same exacting standards as their complete models. By investing in genuine Traxxas replacement parts like these body mounts, you're ensuring your X-Maxx continues to perform at its absolute best for years to come.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas TRX7715 body mount set represents the pinnacle of chassis engineering for the X-Maxx 4WD brushless monster truck platform. The selection of different fastener types—including the 3x12mm shoulder screws designed to provide articulated pivot points and the 3x15mm ball cup screws that allow slight movement and flex—demonstrates how Traxxas engineers design chassis components to work harmoniously with the truck's suspension and drivetrain. When properly installed, these body mounts absorb the tremendous forces generated by the X-Maxx's 8S LiPo brushless power system, high-speed impacts, and aggressive off-road driving conditions. The flat-head machine screws (both 3x10mm and 3x15mm variants) provide secure, flush mounting that integrates seamlessly with the chassis design. The quality of these components is critical because they directly affect how the body shell responds to acceleration, braking, and cornering forces during high-performance RC driving. Traxxas has spent decades refining the X-Maxx platform, and every hardware specification reflects this commitment to performance and durability, ensuring that when you replace worn body mounts with genuine TRX7715 parts, you're restoring your truck to factory specifications and maintaining the precision handling characteristics that make the X-Maxx the world's fastest brushless monster truck.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the TRX7715 body mount set compatible with? — The TRX7715 is specifically designed for the complete Traxxas X-Maxx family, including the X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S monster truck models (available in red, green, orange, and blue) and the X-Maxx Ultimate variants (available in green and blue). If you own any X-Maxx monster truck variant, these genuine Traxxas body mounts will be the correct replacement parts for your vehicle.
- Why would I need replacement body mounts? — Body mounts experience significant stress during RC driving, especially when you're bashing or racing your brushless X-Maxx monster truck at high speeds. Over time, the mounting hardware can loosen, crack, or wear out, which may result in the body shell shifting or rattling during driving. Additionally, if your truck crashes or experiences a hard impact, body mounts can be damaged and require replacement. Keeping spare body mounts on hand is a smart preventive maintenance strategy for serious RC enthusiasts who want to keep their X-Maxx performing at factory specifications.
- Is this a complete body mount replacement kit? — The TRX7715 includes all the fasteners needed for proper body mounting, featuring multiple screw types and sizes for both front and rear mounting points on your X-Maxx. However, if the actual plastic or aluminium mount components have cracked or shattered, you may need to order those separately; this kit focuses specifically on the hardware needed to secure the body shell to the chassis.
- How difficult is it to install these body mounts? — Installing body mounts is a straightforward maintenance task that most RC enthusiasts can complete with basic tools. You'll need a small Phillips or hex wrench (depending on your screw types) and perhaps 15-20 minutes to carefully remove the old hardware and install the new mounts. If you're new to RC maintenance, don't worry—the process is intuitive, and having a repair manual or online tutorial video for the X-Maxx will guide you through the exact torque specifications and installation sequence.
- Why choose genuine Traxxas parts instead of aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Traxxas parts like the TRX7715 are engineered to exact specifications and manufactured to the same quality standards as the original components on your X-Maxx. Aftermarket alternatives may fit, but they often lack the precision tolerances that ensure optimal performance. By using genuine Traxxas body mounts, you maintain your truck's performance characteristics, warranty compliance, and long-term durability, making it a worthwhile investment for any serious X-Maxx owner.
