Overview
Elevate the appearance and functionality of your Traxxas Sledge with these striking blue rear mud guards. Designed specifically for the Sledge Belted 1:8 4WD Brushless Electric Monster Truck, these left and right mud guards add genuine style whilst providing practical protection for your RC vehicle. Whether you're a serious basher or a casual enthusiast enjoying RC car action in the UK, these colour-matched guards help preserve your truck's bodywork and suspension components from mud, dirt and debris during intense off-road sessions. The Sledge is already renowned for its aggressive stance and impressive performance capabilities, and these blue mud guards complement the vehicle's muscular profile perfectly.
As an authorised UK RC retailer, RC Model Shop stocks genuine Traxxas spare parts and accessories that deliver authentic fit and finish. The Sledge platform has become incredibly popular amongst RC enthusiasts across the United Kingdom, and these mud guards are an essential upgrade for anyone looking to enhance both the aesthetics and protective capabilities of their machine. Available for immediate order, these genuine Traxxas components ensure you're getting exactly what your Sledge needs for optimal performance and appearance.
Mud guards aren't just about looks—they play a crucial protective role during aggressive driving. When you're pushing your 1/8 scale brushless RC truck to its limits, mud, water and debris get kicked up from the tyres and terrain. These rear mud guards shield your suspension components, shock absorbers and chassis from mud accumulation and impact damage. Combined with Traxxas's legendary build quality and attention to detail, these guards represent a smart investment in maintaining your RC truck's longevity and keeping it looking pristine between runs.
Key Features
- Factory-matched blue colour — These mud guards are colour-coordinated specifically for the blue variant of the Traxxas Sledge Belted monster truck, ensuring seamless visual integration and a professional, factory-finished appearance that looks like part of the original design.
- Complete left and right pair — Supplied as a matched pair for both the left and right sides of your truck's rear, providing balanced protection and a symmetrical look that maintains the Sledge's aggressive styling.
- Includes all mounting hardware — The package includes 3x15 mm CCS screws (2 pieces) and 3x25 mm CCS screws (2 pieces), so you have everything needed for quick and straightforward installation without hunting for additional fasteners.
- Genuine Traxxas manufacturing — Manufactured to Traxxas's exacting standards, these mud guards offer the same durability and fit quality you expect from factory components, ensuring they integrate perfectly with your Sledge's chassis and suspension.
- Practical debris protection — During aggressive off-road driving, mud guards shield your rear suspension components, shock mounts and chassis from flying mud, water and terrain debris that could otherwise accumulate and cause corrosion or damage.
- Enhanced visual protection — Beyond functional benefits, these guards protect the aesthetic appeal of your truck by preventing mud splatter from covering the rear bodywork and components during muddy driving sessions.
- Easy installation — Mounting is straightforward with clearly-designed attachment points that align perfectly with the Sledge's existing hardware locations, making this an ideal upgrade project even for newer RC enthusiasts.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Sledge rear mud guards are engineered from durable materials designed to withstand the rigours of serious bashing and off-road RC car action. These components are manufactured to exacting tolerances that ensure perfect alignment with the Sledge's chassis and suspension geometry, maintaining the truck's handling characteristics and visual balance. The blue colour finish matches the factory paint specification of the Traxxas Sledge Belted 1/8 4WD Brushless Electric Monster Truck, creating a cohesive, professional appearance. The guards are positioned to provide maximum coverage of the rear suspension area where mud and debris accumulation is most problematic during high-speed driving through wet, muddy terrain. The 3x15 mm and 3x25 mm CCS (Cross-Countersunk Socket) screw fastening system provides secure attachment whilst maintaining visual cleanliness—the countersunk design ensures screws sit flush with the mounting surface rather than protruding. This attention to engineering detail is characteristic of Traxxas's approach to spare parts design, where even protective components are treated as integral design elements rather than mere afterthoughts. The mud guards are compatible with all colour variants of the Traxxas Sledge Belted monster truck range, though this specific blue version is designed for visual harmony with the blue Sledge models.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas Sledge models are these mud guards compatible with? — These rear mud guards are designed to fit all variants of the Traxxas Sledge Belted 1/8 4WD Brushless Electric Monster Truck, including the blue (TRX95096-4-BLUE), orange (TRX95096-4-ORNG), green (TRX95096-4-GRN) and red (TRX95096-4-RED) versions. However, this specific blue pair provides perfect colour matching for the blue Sledge variant.
- Are these mud guards easy to install on my Sledge? — Yes, installation is straightforward. The package includes all necessary mounting hardware—3x15 mm and 3x25 mm CCS screws—and the guards are designed with pre-formed mounting points that align perfectly with your Sledge's chassis. The countersunk screw system ensures a clean, professional finish. Most users can complete installation in under 15 minutes with just a screwdriver.
- Do I need to remove my Sledge's body shell to fit these mud guards? — The mud guards are mounted to the chassis and suspension components at the rear of the truck. Depending on your specific setup, you may be able to install them without removing the body, though removing the shell makes access to the mounting points easier and ensures correct positioning.
- What is the difference between the 3x15 mm and 3x25 mm screws included? — The different screw lengths are supplied to accommodate varying mounting depths and material thicknesses at different attachment points on your Sledge's rear chassis. Both types use the same cross-countersunk socket head design for consistent visual appearance and secure fastening.
- Will these mud guards improve my Sledge's performance? — Mud guards are primarily a protective and aesthetic upgrade rather than a performance modification. However, they do serve an important protective function by preventing mud and debris accumulation on your suspension components, which can reduce performance over time if left unchecked. Keeping your suspension clean and debris-free helps maintain optimal handling and component longevity.
- Can I use these mud guards with different colour Sledge models? — Yes, these blue guards are compatible with all Sledge Belted models mechanically. However, for perfect visual matching, Traxxas also offers orange (TRX9519T), red (TRX9519R) and green (TRX9519G) versions of the same mud guards, allowing you to choose the colour that best complements your specific truck variant.
- Are these genuine Traxxas parts or aftermarket alternatives? — These are genuine Traxxas-manufactured spare parts, built to the same exacting standards as the components that come on your original Sledge. Buying genuine parts ensures perfect fit, guaranteed compatibility and the durability that Traxxas is known for in the RC community across the UK and internationally.
