Key Features
- Pre-painted ProGraphix finish — This body arrives with a premium factory paint job using Traxxas's recognised ProGraphix paint system, which offers superior durability, colour vibrancy and resistance to fading from UV exposure and constant outdoor use, meaning your RC truck will look professional for longer than budget alternative bodies.
- Factory-applied decals — Pre-mounted graphics save you hours of painstaking decal application and ensure perfect alignment and authenticity, giving your Rustler the genuine Traxxas look without the frustration of bubble-prone DIY installation.
- Tough polycarbonate construction — The body shell is manufactured from impact-resistant polycarbonate material that flexes on impact rather than shattering, absorbing the punishment of off-road bashing, crashes and aggressive driving whilst maintaining structural integrity through countless sessions.
- Pre-installed body mounts — Both front and rear body mounts come factory-fitted and ready for clipless mounting, eliminating the need to source additional hardware and allowing tool-free installation onto your Rustler chassis in seconds, making this an instantly usable replacement.
- Universal Rustler compatibility — This body fits both the standard Rustler and the higher-performance Rustler VXL, making it a versatile choice whether you're running a brushed motor setup or upgrading to brushless VXL performance on your 2WD electric RC truck.
- Ready-to-mount design — Coming fully assembled and requiring no paint, decal application or hardware installation, this body allows you to get back to driving within moments of unboxing, perfect for those who want immediate results without workshop time investment.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Body TRX3721-ORNG combines proven polycarbonate shell technology with meticulous factory finishing to deliver a component that performs as well as it looks. Manufactured to exacting Traxxas standards, the polycarbonate shell provides the ideal balance of weight and impact resistance for a 1/10 scale 2WD stadium truck platform. The ProGraphix paint system utilises automotive-grade materials that resist chipping, fading and weathering, ensuring the vibrant orange finish maintains its lustre even after extended exposure to UK weather conditions and aggressive outdoor use. The pre-applied decals are bonded with professional-grade adhesive, providing long-term durability that withstands the vibrations and impacts inherent to RC truck operation. At the core of this body's engineering is Traxxas's commitment to fitment precision — the shell is designed with exact dimensional tolerances to ensure seamless integration with your Rustler or Rustler VXL chassis, maintaining proper aerodynamics, handling characteristics and visual proportion. The clipless mounting system utilises the pre-installed front and rear body mounts to secure the shell firmly whilst allowing rapid removal for maintenance, battery swaps or personalisation without the need for tool access or hardware manipulation.
