Key Features

• Pre-Painted ProGraphix Finish — The body arrives with Traxxas's premium ProGraphix paint system already applied, eliminating the need for time-consuming painting and giving your RC truck a professional, factory-fresh appearance immediately upon installation. This high-quality paint finish resists fading and maintains its vibrant blue colour through countless hours of outdoor use.
• Pre-Applied Decals — All graphics and decals come pre-installed on the bodyshell, saving you hours of careful decal application work and ensuring perfectly positioned, professional-looking graphics that match Traxxas's original design specifications. This means your truck looks authentic and complete without any assembly headaches.
• Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from durable polycarbonate material that absorbs impacts and resists cracking during aggressive bashing and competitive racing. This material choice ensures your investment remains protected through the inevitable collisions and rollovers that come with RC 4WD truck ownership.
• Fully Assembled and Ready to Mount — Unlike many aftermarket bodies that require assembly, this shell arrives completely assembled with all mounting hardware pre-installed, including front and rear body mounts and rear body support specifically designed for clipless mounting. Simply remove the old body and slide this one into place — no tools, no frustration.
• Pre-Installed Body Mounts — The front and rear body mounts are factory-installed, ensuring perfect alignment and reducing setup time. These mounts are engineered specifically for the Rustler 4X4 platform, guaranteeing a secure, rattle-free fit that maintains the truck's aerodynamics and appearance.
• Rear Body Support for Clipless Mounting — The integrated rear body support enables quick-change, clipless mounting, meaning you can swap bodies in seconds without removing screws or using tools. This feature is invaluable for racers who want to change setups between heats or for bashers who simply want flexibility and convenience.
• Pre-Installed Roof Skids — Roof skids come factory-fitted to the body, protecting the top of your truck from damage during rollovers and adding to the aggressive stance. These skids also contribute to the authentic stadium truck appearance that makes the Rustler 4X4 such a popular choice among UK RC enthusiasts.
• Pre-Installed Rear Wing — The aerodynamic rear wing is already mounted and ready to go, enhancing both the visual appeal and the high-speed stability of your truck. The rear wing design helps improve handling at speed whilst maintaining the aggressive, competition-inspired look of your Rustler 4X4.
• Compatible with Rustler 4X4 Brushless Models — This body is specifically engineered to fit multiple Rustler 4X4 brushless configurations, including the TRX67164-4-RED and TRX67164-4-BLUE models, as well as the Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 variants. This compatibility makes it an excellent spare body option or upgrade path if you're expanding your collection of brushless RC 4WD trucks.
• 1/10 Scale Stadium Truck Design — At 1/10 scale, this body is perfectly proportioned for the popular stadium truck class, offering great visibility, realistic proportions, and an ideal size for both indoor and outdoor RC racing and bashing throughout the UK. The scale provides an excellent balance between manoeuvrability and presence.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Body, Rustler 4X4, Blue represents the pinnacle of replacement bodyshell engineering for serious RC 4WD truck enthusiasts. Manufactured from premium polycarbonate, the material selection reflects Traxxas's commitment to durability without compromising on weight, a critical consideration for maintaining the performance characteristics of your brushless RC stadium truck. The ProGraphix paint system applied to this body is specifically formulated to provide UV resistance and long-lasting colour retention, meaning your blue finish will remain vibrant even after extended exposure to sunlight during outdoor RC racing and bashing sessions. The pre-applied decal graphics are secured using Traxxas's proven adhesion process, ensuring they remain firmly attached through the impacts, vibrations, and environmental exposure inherent to RC truck ownership. The integrated body mounting system — featuring both front and rear mounts along with the rear body support — is engineered to provide rock-solid alignment with your Rustler 4X4 platform, eliminating body flex and ensuring consistent aerodynamic performance. The clipless mounting system represents a major convenience upgrade, allowing you to transition from your stock body to this replacement in mere seconds, a feature highly valued by competitive racers who run multiple setups. The pre-installed roof skids and rear wing contribute to the overall structural rigidity of the body whilst maintaining the authentic stadium truck proportions that have made the Rustler 4X4 a favourite among UK RC enthusiasts for years. At 1/10 scale, this body maintains perfect proportions with the Rustler 4X4 chassis, preserving the truck's handling balance and visual appeal regardless of your power system — whether you're running a 2S, 3S, or higher-voltage brushless motor configuration.

If you own a different Rustler variant, we recommend checking the part compatibility section to ensure proper fitment before ordering.
• Do I need to paint or decal this body myself? — No, one of the major advantages of this Traxxas body is that it arrives completely pre-painted with the ProGraphix finish and pre-decaled, meaning you can install it straight from the box without any painting or graphics work. This saves considerable time and ensures professional-quality results that match Traxxas's factory standards.
• How quickly can I swap this body onto my existing chassis? — Thanks to the clipless mounting system with the integrated rear body support, you can change from your existing body to this one in just seconds. Simply remove the clips on your current body and slide it off, then position this new body and secure the clips — no tools or fasteners required, making it the fastest body-change system available for the Rustler 4X4 platform.
• What makes this body suitable for both racing and bashing? — The polycarbonate construction is engineered to absorb impacts from crashes and rollovers without cracking, whilst the factory assembly ensures perfect fitment and alignment. Whether you're competing in organised RC racing events across the UK or bashing in your garden and local parks, this body provides the durability and reliability you need.
• Can I repaint this body if I want a different colour? — Yes, polycarbonate bodies can be repainted if desired, though the factory ProGraphix finish is durable and colour-fast. If you wish to customise the colour, you should use polycarbonate-specific paints and follow proper preparation procedures to ensure adhesion and longevity.
• Is assembly required for the body mounts and wing? — No, all body mounts, roof skids, and the rear wing are pre-installed at the factory, so you receive a completely assembled, ready-to-mount bodyshell. This is a significant convenience factor that sets this product apart from many competing body options.

• How durable is the polycarbonate material? — Polycarbonate is an excellent material choice for RC bodies because it offers a superb balance between weight, strength, and impact resistance. It absorbs energy from crashes better than rigid plastics and resists cracking under the stresses of competitive racing and aggressive bashing, making it ideal for UK RC enthusiasts who demand durability.
