Key Features

• Tight-fitting fender set design — This mud flap fender set is engineered to fit snugly to your TRX-4M Ford F-150, ensuring maximum coverage and protection without interfering with suspension movement or articulation. The precision fit means you get complete peace of mind that your chassis is shielded from the elements.
• Fills the gap between chassis and body — By sealing the space between your vehicle's chassis and body panels, this upgrade prevents mud, dirt, and debris from accumulating in hard-to-clean areas. This barrier keeps your internal components, wiring, and mechanical parts significantly cleaner during off-road use.
• Protects inner chassis from mud and debris — Your TRX-4M's internal components face constant bombardment from mud and stones when driving through challenging terrain. These mud flaps shield that vulnerable area, reducing the wear and tear on your RC car and minimising the cleaning time required after each session.
• Enhances authentic scale appearance — Beyond pure function, this fender set adds genuine visual appeal to your scale crawler. Real trucks have mud flaps and fenders for a reason, and adding them to your RC model makes it look more realistic and purposeful, perfect if you care about the aesthetic of your RC hobby investment.
• Hardware pack included for installation — Everything you need to fit this upgrade comes in the box. No hunting around for the correct fasteners or making do with unsuitable hardware. The included components ensure a secure, permanent installation that will withstand aggressive driving and terrain.
• Designed for Traxxas TRX-4M Ford F-150 — This is not a generic product; it's engineered specifically for the Traxxas 1/18 TRX-4M Ford F-150 High Trail Truck platform. This precision compatibility ensures perfect fitment and maximum effectiveness, whether you're running the Black, Brown, or Blue variant of this popular crawler.

Technical Performance

The RC Overhaul Mud Flap Fender TRX-4M Ford F-150 is constructed from durable materials engineered to withstand the rigours of off-road RC driving. The tight-fitting design demonstrates precision engineering that respects the geometry of the Traxxas TRX-4M platform, ensuring that the fenders don't interfere with suspension travel, wheel articulation, or any other critical moving parts of your crawler. The hardware pack included with the product has been selected specifically for this application, ensuring secure fastening that will maintain integrity through rough terrain, water crossings, and aggressive driving. The fender system is designed to absorb the impact of flying debris whilst remaining mounted securely to your vehicle's chassis. This is a passive protection system requiring no electronics, no batteries, and no external power source — it simply mounts to your TRX-4M and works continuously without any maintenance or adjustment needed. The engineering philosophy behind this product reflects practical RC knowledge: the best protection is the kind that's always working, never fails, and adds no weight or complexity to your setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these mud flaps fit my Traxxas TRX-4M Ford F-150? — Yes, these are specifically engineered for the Traxxas 1/18 TRX-4M Ford F-150 High Trail Truck platform. They are compatible with all colour variants including Black (TRX97044-1-BLK), Brown (TRX97044-1-BRWN), and Blue (TRX97044-1-BLUE). The precision fit ensures they work perfectly without any modification.
• How difficult is installation? — Installation is straightforward and can be completed in minutes. A hardware pack is included with everything you need, and no specialist tools or technical knowledge is required. If you can assemble an RC crawler, you can install these mud flaps.
• Will these affect my vehicle's suspension or ground clearance? — No, the tight-fitting design is engineered to sit between the chassis and body panels without interfering with suspension movement, articulation, or overall ground clearance. They're designed to protect without compromising your vehicle's capability.
• Do these mud flaps work on the TRX-4M Chevrolet K10? — These are specifically designed for the Ford F-150 variant of the TRX-4M. However, RC Overhaul does make a mud flap fender set for the Chevrolet K10 High Trail variant if you require that fitment instead.
• What problem do these mud flaps actually solve? — When driving your RC crawler through muddy or dusty terrain, debris and mud are constantly kicked up by your tyres and impact your vehicle's chassis and internal components. Over time, this accumulation causes dirt buildup in hard-to-reach areas, can corrode wiring, and requires extensive cleaning after each session. These mud flaps act as a physical barrier, keeping your chassis and mechanical components significantly cleaner and reducing maintenance time.
• Are these suitable for serious off-road crawling? — Yes, absolutely. These mud flaps are specifically designed for the TRX-4M, which is a serious scale crawler platform. The precision engineering and included hardware ensure they'll remain mounted securely through challenging terrain, water crossings, and rock crawling.
• Do I need any specialist tools to fit these? — No, standard RC hobby tools are sufficient. You may need a small screwdriver to secure the hardware, but nothing beyond what you'd already have if you own an RC crawler.
• Will these mud flaps damage easily? — These are engineered from durable materials designed to withstand impact from flying debris and harsh terrain. They're built to absorb punishment, not to be delicate. They'll protect your chassis far better than your chassis can protect them.
