The black Bash Armor material provides consistent colour and finish without paint or clear coat, meaning your body maintains its appearance through countless bashing sessions. The pre-cut design ensures immediate compatibility with X-MAXX platforms, whether you're running a standard X-MAXX, X-MAXX Ultimate or any other variant. For drivers of brushless RC monster trucks seeking maximum durability without sacrificing style, this body offers unmatched engineering that protects your investment whilst delivering the visual impact that makes RC bashing truly rewarding.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this body fit my Traxxas X-MAXX? — Yes, this body is specifically designed and pre-cut for the Traxxas X-MAXX and is compatible with all X-MAXX variants including the X-MAXX Belted 4WD Brushless RTR models and X-MAXX Ultimate variants in all colours (red, green, blue and orange). No modification is required for installation.
- Can I paint the Bash Armor material? — No, the Bash Armor material cannot be painted. The body comes in solid black finish and is not intended for painting. However, Pro-Line encourages customisation using stickers or vinyl wraps to personalise your truck's appearance whilst maintaining the durability of the Bash Armor construction.
- What is Bash Armor and why is it better than standard bodies? — Bash Armor is Pro-Line's proprietary advanced polymer construction that's engineered to flex rather than shatter on impact. The material is twice as thick as conventional RC bodies, providing superior durability and protection. This makes it ideal for aggressive bashing and high-impact driving styles where traditional polycarbonate bodies would crack or break.
- Are the decals and stickers included? — Yes, two detailed decal sheets are included with fender graphics and window stickers that are designed to complete the authentic 1956 Ford F-100 look. These pre-printed decals save you the hassle of custom painting and provide professional-quality graphics that capture the classic design.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This is a body shell only and doesn't include a chassis or electronics. If you already own a Traxxas X-MAXX, this body upgrade is straightforward to install and suitable for drivers of any experience level. However, you'll need to have a complete X-MAXX ready to run setup already, which is typically an advanced platform.
- How does the scale compare to other RC trucks? — At 1/5 scale, this is one of the largest ready to run RC vehicles available, making it significantly bigger and more imposing than 1/10 or 1/8 scale alternatives. The 1/5 scale size provides superior presence and the ability to handle rough terrain with larger tyres and more substantial suspension.
