Key Features
- High-Quality Composite Material Construction — These side guards are moulded from resilient composite material that has been specifically engineered to absorb impacts and resist damage from rocks, debris and rough terrain, ensuring your vehicle's chassis stays protected during aggressive driving.
- Purpose-Designed Protection — Each guard is specifically designed to be fitted to the sides of your vehicle above the chassis, positioning them perfectly to intercept dirt, dust, stones and mud before they can reach the centre of your vehicle and compromise components.
- Increased Protection from Dirt Ingress — One of the critical advantages of installing side guards is the dramatic reduction in dirt, dust and mud that can find its way into the vehicle's chassis and damage electronics, bearings and moving parts during off-road running.
- Complete Left and Right Guard Set — This package includes both a left side guard and a right side guard, providing full 360-degree protection around the sides of your RC monster truck without requiring you to source parts separately.
- Authentic ARRMA Original Equipment — Manufactured by ARRMA to their original specifications, these guards ensure perfect fitment and compatibility with your ARRMA monster truck, with no modifications required.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Monster Truck Side Guard Set has been engineered with serious RC bashers in mind. Moulded from a high-quality resilient composite material, these guards offer a perfect balance between impact protection and lightweight construction. The guards mount directly to the sides of your vehicle above the chassis, positioning them to catch and deflect debris before it reaches your vehicle's centre. This positioning is critical for protecting vital components including your motor, ESC, servo systems and chassis structure from the constant barrage of stones, sand, mud and dirt that accumulates during off-road running. The composite material used in their construction is tough enough to withstand repeated impacts without cracking or becoming brittle, and the guards have been tested extensively to ensure they maintain their protective qualities across multiple RC car seasons. The engineering excellence that ARRMA brings to all their products is evident in these guards, which represent a genuine investment in protecting your vehicle and extending its operational lifespan. Whether you're running in dusty UK trails, muddy forest tracks or rocky terrain, these side guards will significantly reduce maintenance requirements and help keep your RC monster truck running smoothly for longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do I need side guards for my RC monster truck? — Side guards are essential protective equipment that prevent dirt, mud, stones and debris from entering the chassis of your RC vehicle during off-road running. They intercept particles and impacts that would otherwise damage your motor, ESC, bearings and other vital components, significantly extending the service life of your RC car and reducing maintenance requirements.
- Are these guards compatible with my ARRMA monster truck? — Yes, the ARRMA Monster Truck Side Guard Set Z-AR320414 is designed specifically for ARRMA vehicles, particularly the ARRMA Granite Mega 4x4. These are authentic ARRMA original spare parts manufactured to exact OEM specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility. If you're unsure whether they're compatible with your specific model, our team at RC Model Shop is always happy to help identify the correct parts for your vehicle.
- How difficult is it to fit side guards to my RC car? — Side guard installation is a straightforward process that doesn't require specialist tools or advanced mechanical knowledge. The guards mount to the sides of your vehicle above the chassis using the existing mounting points, and most RC enthusiasts can complete the installation in just a few minutes. Instructions are typically provided, and you'll need basic screwdrivers and possibly some light mechanical familiarity.
- Will these side guards affect the performance of my RC monster truck? — No, these guards will not negatively impact the performance of your vehicle. They are moulded from lightweight composite material and mounted on the outside of the chassis, so they add only minimal weight and will not affect acceleration, speed, handling or battery runtime in any meaningful way.
- What is the difference between these original ARRMA guards and generic aftermarket alternatives? — ARRMA's original side guards are engineered specifically for ARRMA vehicles using genuine materials and manufacturing processes that ensure perfect fitment, durability and protection. Generic aftermarket alternatives may not fit as precisely, may use lower-quality materials that become brittle over time, and may not provide the same level of protection as genuine ARRMA parts. By choosing original equipment, you're investing in compatibility, quality and long-term reliability.
- How long will these side guards last? — These guards are moulded from resilient composite material designed for durability. With normal use, they should last for multiple seasons of RC running. If they do eventually become damaged or worn, replacement guards are readily available as spare parts, making maintenance simple and cost-effective.
