Key Features
- Officially Licensed Jeep® Gladiator Design — This body shell features authentic Jeep® Gladiator styling and branding, ensuring your RC monster truck looks exactly like the real vehicle. Being officially licensed means every detail, from the distinctive grille to the bed styling, is accurately replicated at 1/10 scale, giving your setup genuine collector appeal and making it instantly recognisable on the track or at the bash spot.
- Crystal Clear Polycarbonate Construction — Manufactured from premium crystal-clear polycarbonate material, this body shell offers excellent clarity and durability. The transparent construction allows light to pass through clearly, which is essential for painting and customisation, and the material is tough enough to withstand the rigours of off-road bashing and competitive racing without cracking or becoming cloudy over time.
- Paint-Then-Peel Overspray Film Built-In — This innovative feature includes a pre-applied masking film that protects your windows and prevents paint overspray from ruining the transparency of your clear body. Once you have finished painting, you simply peel away the protective film, revealing perfectly masked windows and graphics underneath. This saves you time on masking tape application and ensures professional-looking results every single time.
- Detailed Sticker Sheet Included — Included with every body shell is a comprehensive decal sheet featuring authentic Jeep® Rubicon badging, graphics and detail stickers. These high-quality stickers transform your clear body into a fully detailed replica and allow you to customise the appearance whilst maintaining accuracy to the real vehicle. The decals are designed to work with your chosen paint scheme and dramatically enhance the overall scale appearance of your monster truck.
- 1-Piece Body Shell Design — This single-piece construction simplifies assembly and reduces weak points compared to multi-piece bodies. The unified design provides excellent structural integrity whilst allowing you to maintain optimal weight distribution across your monster truck platform, which is crucial for balanced handling whether you are bashing casually or competing seriously.
- Compatible with Multiple Monster Truck Platforms — This body shell is engineered to fit the Stampede® 4x4, Granite® (models ARA102727, ARA4202V3 and ARA4302V3) and Vorteks™ (model ARA4305), with extended body mounts included. This versatility means you can upgrade an existing monster truck with a fresh new look without needing to purchase additional adapters or mounts, making it an accessible upgrade for anyone running one of these platforms.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line's heritage of manufacturing in the United States since 1982 reflects their commitment to quality control and engineering excellence. All body shells are produced to exacting standards using proven manufacturing techniques, ensuring consistent quality and reliability across every unit, which is why RC enthusiasts in the UK consistently choose Pro-Line for their bodyshell needs.
- Window Mask Included — A professional-grade window mask is included in every package, protecting the clear windows during painting and preventing paint contamination. This thoughtful inclusion demonstrates Pro-Line's understanding of the painting process and ensures your finished body looks factory-perfect with crystal-clear, unpainted windows that showcase your truck's interior details.
Technical Performance
The PRO 1/10 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Clear Body is engineered as a complete bodyshell solution designed to work seamlessly with your existing monster truck chassis and electronics. Measuring 17.5 inches in length (445mm), 6.4 inches in width (163mm), 5.1 inches in height (129mm), and featuring an 11.5-inch wheelbase (292mm), this body provides an authentic scale appearance that perfectly complements modern 1/10 monster truck platforms. The crystal-clear polycarbonate material offers excellent optical clarity whilst providing the durability required for serious bashers and competitive racers alike. The body's proportions have been carefully calculated to maintain ideal aerodynamics and weight distribution, ensuring your monster truck maintains balanced handling characteristics across all terrain types, from smooth concrete tracks to rough outdoor bashing environments. Pro-Line's engineering team has incorporated subtle design elements that enhance airflow around the body during high-speed running, whilst the reinforced mounting points ensure secure fitment with zero flex or rattle. The included paint-then-peel overspray film is engineered to release cleanly without leaving residue, and the pre-drilled window mask provisions make the finishing process intuitive and straightforward for builders of all experience levels. Whether you are running a brushless or brushed RC motor system, this body shell's aerodynamic profile contributes to overall efficiency and top speed performance. The semi-gloss finish of unpainted polycarbonate provides an ideal base for custom paint schemes, accepting both acrylic and specialised RC lacquer paints equally well.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this clear body compatible with my current monster truck setup? — This body shell fits the Traxxas Stampede® 4x4 and ARRMA Granite™ (ARA102727, ARA4202V3 and ARA4302V3) and Vorteks™ (ARA4305) chassis platforms. The extended body mounts are included in the package. If you own one of these models, this body will fit directly onto your existing setup. You will not need a new chassis or electronics; simply remove your current body and mount this one in its place.
- Do I need to paint this body myself? — Yes, this is sold as an unpainted, clear polycarbonate body shell. The crystal-clear plastic allows you complete creative freedom with paint colour and design. Pro-Line includes a paint-then-peel overspray film that protects your windows during painting, making the process straightforward. Many hobbyists choose to paint their bodies in factory colours, custom schemes, or unique designs that reflect their personal style. If you are new to painting RC bodies, the included masking film takes the guesswork out of protecting windows and creating clean lines.
- What paint should I use on a polycarbonate RC body? — RC-specific polycarbonate paints are the recommended choice as they bond properly to clear plastic and provide durability during racing and bashing. Acrylic hobby paints can also work well on polycarbonate bodies. Apply paint in thin, even coats to avoid drips and runs. Many UK RC enthusiasts use specialised RC body paints from brands like Createx, Tamiya or HPI, which are formulated specifically for this application. Always test your chosen paint on a spare piece of clear plastic first to ensure compatibility before painting your finished body shell.
- Are the stickers included with the body? — Yes, a detailed sticker sheet featuring authentic Jeep® Rubicon badging, graphics and detail stickers is included with every body. These high-quality decals are designed to enhance your custom paint scheme and add authentic detail work to your finished monster truck. The stickers can be applied directly over your paint once it has fully cured. You can choose to apply all stickers, some stickers, or none at all, depending on your preferred final appearance.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This body shell is suitable for anyone who owns a compatible monster truck platform and is willing to invest time in painting and decal application. If you are completely new to RC cars and do not yet own a Stampede® 4x4, Granite™ or Vorteks™ chassis, you will need to purchase the chassis separately. However, once you have a compatible platform, applying this body shell is straightforward. The included masking film and window mask make the painting process beginner-friendly, and detailed sticker application is a relaxing weekend project for anyone with basic hobby skills.
- What is the difference between a clear body and a pre-painted body? — A clear polycarbonate body allows you complete creative control over the paint colour, finish, and custom graphics. A pre-painted body arrives ready to mount but offers limited customisation options. This clear body is ideal if you want a unique colour scheme, custom designs, or if you want to paint it in authentic factory colours that match the real Jeep® Gladiator. The trade-off is that you must invest time in painting, but the end result is a completely personalised monster truck that reflects your style and preferences.
- Does this body fit both brushless and brushed motor systems? — Yes, this body shell is compatible with any monster truck running compatible Stampede® 4x4, Granite™ or Vorteks™ platforms, regardless of whether your electronics feature brushless or brushed motors. The body shell itself is agnostic to your power system; it is purely an aesthetic and aerodynamic component. Whether you are running a brushless system for high performance or a brushed setup for reliability and cost-effectiveness, this body will fit and perform identically.
- How long does it take to paint and finish this body? — Painting time varies depending on your chosen design complexity. A simple single-colour paint scheme with masking can take 2-3 hours including drying time. More complex multi-colour designs or custom graphics may require 4-8 hours across multiple days. Decal application typically takes 1-2 hours. Total turnaround from unpainted body to finished, mounted setup is typically a weekend project for most hobbyists. Allow proper drying time between coats for the best results.
