Key Features
- ProGraphix Pre-Painted Finish — This blue body features Traxxas's proprietary ProGraphix paint system, which delivers a professional, durable finish that looks fantastic on display and under track lights. No painting required, saving you time and ensuring a factory-quality result.
- Pre-Applied Decal Sheet — The body comes with a complete window, grille, and lights decal sheet already applied, creating a fully finished appearance. This eliminates the tedious task of aligning and applying decals yourself, getting your truck track-ready immediately.
- Fully Assembled with Pre-Installed Mounts — Front and rear body mounts are factory-installed and ready to go, along with the rear body support. This assembly means you spend less time preparing and more time driving your RC truck.
- Clipless Mounting System — The rear body support enables clipless mounting, which simplifies body installation and removal. This quick-change system is perfect for pit crews and bashers who swap bodies frequently or need rapid access to chassis components.
- Durable Polycarbonate Construction — Manufactured from tough polycarbonate material, this body offers excellent impact resistance and durability through crashes and collisions. Polycarbonate is the gold standard for RC car bodies, offering flexibility that absorbs impacts without cracking like rigid plastics.
- Official Traxxas OEM Component — As a genuine Traxxas part number TRX6718X, you're getting authentic OEM-quality engineering and fit. This guarantees perfect compatibility with your Rustler 4X4 chassis and eliminates fitment issues common with aftermarket alternatives.
- Stunning Blue Colour Option — The vibrant blue finish stands out on the track and makes your RC truck instantly recognisable. It's a professional colour choice that works well in both outdoor daylight and indoor facility lighting.
Technical Performance
This Traxxas body shell is engineered for the 1/10 scale Rustler 4X4 platform, specifically compatible with the Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 in both green and blue variants. The polycarbonate construction provides the ideal balance between lightweight design and robust protection for your RC truck's chassis. The pre-installed body mounts and rear body support are engineered for Traxxas's clipless mounting system, which is renowned for its reliability and ease of use in the competitive RC community. The integrated roof skid provides additional protection during rollovers and crashes, a common occurrence during off-road bashing sessions. The complete factory assembly means all components are perfectly aligned and tested before leaving the Traxxas facility, ensuring immediate fitment and optimal aerodynamics. The professional ProGraphix paint and applied decals meet Traxxas's strict quality standards, with colours that resist fading and decals that maintain their adhesion through countless driving sessions and environmental exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this a complete ready to run RC car or just a body shell? — This is a body shell only, designed to upgrade an existing Traxxas Rustler 4X4 or Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 truck. You'll need a complete Rustler 4X4 chassis with motor, ESC, battery, and radio system to use this body. However, the body comes fully assembled with all mounting hardware pre-installed, so installation is straightforward.
- What Rustler models does this body fit? — This body shell is specifically compatible with the Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 1/10 brushless platform, available in both green (TRX67097-4-GRN) and blue (TRX67097-4-BLUE) variants. Always verify compatibility with your specific Rustler model before purchasing.
- Do I need to paint or apply decals myself? — No, this is a massive advantage — the body comes pre-painted with Traxxas's ProGraphix finish and features pre-applied window, grille, and lights decals. You can mount it straight onto your chassis without any additional preparation, painting, or decal work required.
- What makes the ProGraphix paint finish special? — Traxxas's proprietary ProGraphix paint system combines durability with vibrant colour accuracy. The finish resists fading, chipping, and peeling better than basic spray paint, making it ideal for both display queens and hard-bashing track vehicles. The professional finish quality is comparable to factory automotive paint systems.
- How does the clipless mounting system work? — The rear body support enables clipless mounting, which means the body secures to the chassis without traditional plastic clips. This system allows for faster body removal and installation, perfect for pit stops during racing or quick maintenance access between driving sessions.
- Will this body fit other RC trucks in my collection? — No, this body is engineered specifically for the 1/10 scale Traxxas Rustler 4X4 platform. Using it on other chassis will result in poor fitment and potential mounting issues. Always purchase bodies designed for your specific model.
- Is the polycarbonate body durable enough for off-road bashing? — Absolutely. Polycarbonate is the industry standard for RC car bodies because it flexes on impact rather than cracking. This makes it ideal for bashers who expect their trucks to take hard knocks and roll-overs during aggressive off-road driving sessions.
- What colour options are available for the Rustler 4X4 body? — Traxxas offers multiple colour options for Rustler 4X4 bodies, including this blue variant, red, and various other finishes. You can mix and match bodies to create multiple custom looks for your truck across different driving sessions.
