Overview
Transform your Slash 4X4 with the stunning Traxxas Body in vibrant green – the perfect way to personalise your RC short course truck and make it stand out from the crowd. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast running a brushless RC 4WD truck or someone looking to refresh an existing Slash, this pre-painted body shell delivers professional-quality aesthetics right out of the box. The eye-catching ProGraphix paint finish combined with factory-applied decals means your RC car UK will look showroom-ready without any additional painting or finishing work required.
This clipless polycarbonate body is engineered specifically for compatibility with Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD models, making it an incredibly versatile upgrade option. Unlike traditional bodies that require trimming and careful preparation, Traxxas pre-painted bodies come fully assembled with front and rear clipless latches, allowing you to mount your new body in minutes. If you own an older Slash chassis without clipless mounting points, upgrading adapters are available, ensuring that virtually any Slash owner can benefit from this stunning cosmetic upgrade.
The decision to upgrade your RC truck body is more than just aesthetic – it's about expressing your personal style and keeping your vehicle fresh and exciting. Whether you're preparing for weekend bashing sessions, competitive track days, or simply want your ready to run RC truck to turn heads at the local flying field, this green Slash body delivers the visual impact and professional finish that serious RC enthusiasts demand.
Key Features
- Clipless Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from durable polycarbonate material and features integrated front and rear clipless latches, which means mounting and removing your body is tool-free and takes just moments, making maintenance and customisation effortless compared to traditional clip-based systems.
- ProGraphix Paint Finish — Traxxas's renowned ProGraphix paint technology delivers a premium, vibrant finish that resists fading and looks fantastic even after extended use, ensuring your RC 4WD truck maintains its showroom appearance for months of bashing.
- Factory-Applied Decals — High-quality decals are pre-applied during manufacturing, eliminating the need for you to apply graphics yourself and ensuring a perfectly aligned, professional appearance straight from the packaging.
- Zero-Prep Ready to Mount — Unlike unpainted or raw polycarbonate bodies, this shell requires absolutely no trimming, painting, or preparation – it arrives fully assembled and ready to install on your Slash chassis, saving you hours of workshop time.
- Universal Slash Compatibility — Engineered to fit Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD platforms, making this an ideal upgrade for anyone running these popular brushless RC short course trucks from Traxxas.
- Older Chassis Adaptability — For owners of earlier Slash models without factory clipless mounts, the body can be fitted using optional mounting brackets (6940 for Slash 2WD, or 6976 and 10125 for Slash 4X4), ensuring backward compatibility.
- Authentic Traxxas Engineering — As an official Traxxas replacement body, this shell maintains the same attention to detail, quality control, and aerodynamic design principles that Traxxas applies to all their RC vehicles, guaranteeing a perfect fit and finish.
Technical Performance
This Traxxas body shell represents the pinnacle of factory-finished RC body engineering. Constructed from impact-resistant polycarbonate, the material provides an excellent balance between durability and lightweight design – critical factors in RC truck performance. The clipless mounting system eliminates the friction points and wear associated with traditional snap-fit bodies, whilst the integrated front and rear latches ensure secure retention even during aggressive bashing or high-speed cornering. The ProGraphix paint process applies factory-grade automotive-style lacquer finishes that bond permanently to the polycarbonate surface, creating a finish that withstands UV exposure, impact marks, and the general wear and tear of regular RC use far better than amateur paint applications. The pre-applied decals use high-definition printing technology and are sealed beneath a protective clear coat, meaning they won't peel, fade, or discolour under normal outdoor conditions. For those running modern Traxxas brushless RC vehicles like the Slash 4X4 Ultimate, Slash 4X4 VXL, or standard Slash 4X4, this body provides aerodynamic shaping optimised for these platforms' performance characteristics. The green colour option provides excellent visibility during outdoor runs, making your RC truck easier to track across varied terrain whether you're running on grass, dirt, or gravel tracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this body fit my Slash truck? — Yes, this body is designed to fit Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD models that feature clipless mounting points. If your Slash chassis is an older model without clipless mounts, you'll need to purchase optional adapters: the 6940 kit for Slash 2WD, or the 6976 and 10125 brackets for Slash 4X4. These adapters allow you to use clipless-compatible bodies on legacy chassis.
- Do I need to paint or trim this body? — No – this is one of the major advantages of Traxxas pre-painted bodies. The green finish is applied at the factory using ProGraphix paint, decals are already applied, and the body arrives fully assembled with latches installed. You can mount it directly onto your compatible Slash chassis with no preparation whatsoever, making it ideal for UK RC enthusiasts who want an instant upgrade without workshop hassle.
- Is this body durable for regular bashing? — Absolutely. The polycarbonate construction is engineered for impact resistance, and the factory-applied ProGraphix paint is significantly more durable than hand-painted finishes. The sealed decals won't peel or fade under normal outdoor conditions, making this body suitable for frequent weekend bashers as well as occasional track runners.
- What is the difference between this and other body options? — The key differences are the clipless mounting system (tool-free installation), the factory ProGraphix paint finish (professional appearance requiring no preparation), and pre-applied decals. This body is ready to use immediately, whereas unpainted or alternative body shells require painting, trimming, and careful application of decals – a process that can take several hours.
- Can I use this on a Slash VXL? — Yes, this body is explicitly designed to fit Slash VXL models, as well as Slash 4X4 and Slash 2WD variants, making it an excellent choice if you're running one of these popular brushless RC short course trucks from Traxxas.
- What colours are available? — Traxxas offers this body in multiple colours including the green option here, as well as blue and red alternatives, allowing you to select the finish that best matches your personal style or complements your existing RC collection.
