The Traxxas TRX8236 rear bumper represents a precision-engineered OEM component crafted from durable materials specifically selected for off-road durability and impact resistance. With dimensions measuring 26.67 centimetres in length, 12.7 centimetres in width, and 3.175 centimetres in height, this bumper achieves comprehensive rear coverage that protects critical chassis components from trail impacts whilst maintaining the low-profile proportions essential for scale realism.
