Overview
The Traxxas Mount, centre differential carrier, 6061-T6 aluminium (Orange-anodised) TRX9584T is a premium upgrade component designed specifically for the Traxxas Sledge 1/8 scale brushless electric monster truck. This is an essential part for anyone looking to maintain or upgrade their RC monster truck with genuine Traxxas components. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK searching for quality Sledge spares, a weekend basher looking to keep your truck in peak condition, or someone considering upgrading their current setup, this centre differential carrier mount delivers the durability and performance you need for extreme action on any terrain.
Built from tough 6061-T6 aluminium and finished in a striking orange anodised colour, this differential mount combines maximum strength with a vibrant aesthetic that complements the Sledge platform perfectly. The bright anodised finish isn't just for looks—it provides superior corrosion resistance, making it ideal for the demanding conditions that RC trucks face, from dusty tracks to wet outdoor environments. As an accessory part engineered by Traxxas, you can be confident that this component meets the exact specifications required for perfect fitment and performance on your Sledge.
For those shopping for RC car parts UK-wide, this is precisely the type of genuine OEM component that separates a well-maintained machine from one that suffers from compatibility issues and premature wear. The inclusion of mounting hardware means you'll have everything needed for installation, making this a complete solution for centre differential carrier upgrades.
Key Features
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — Made from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium, this centre differential carrier mount offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring your Sledge can handle the extreme stresses of high-speed running, jumps, and aggressive cornering without flexing or bending.
- Orange Anodised Finish — The bright anodised colour provides multiple benefits: it creates a hard, corrosion-resistant surface that protects against rust and oxidation, enhances visibility during outdoor RC sessions, and adds a professional, finished appearance to your truck's drivetrain components.
- Maximum Strength Design — Engineered specifically for the Sledge platform, this mount is designed to withstand the extreme forces generated by the brushless motor and 4WD drivetrain, ensuring durability through countless hours of bashing and racing.
- Complete Mounting Hardware Included — Everything you need for installation comes in the box, eliminating the frustration of sourcing compatible fasteners and ensuring your mount is secured correctly with the manufacturer-specified hardware.
- Direct Fitment for Sledge Models — This component is engineered as an accessory part specifically for Traxxas Sledge belted 1/8 scale 4WD brushless electric monster trucks, guaranteeing perfect compatibility across all Sledge colour variants (Blue, Orange, Green, and Red).
- Premium Traxxas Quality — As an official Traxxas component, this mount undergoes rigorous quality control and is manufactured to the same exacting standards as the complete vehicles, meaning you're investing in reliability and longevity.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Mount, centre differential carrier represents the pinnacle of drivetrain engineering for 1/8 scale monster truck applications. The 6061-T6 aluminium material is specifically chosen for its exceptional mechanical properties: it offers superior strength compared to standard aluminium alloys whilst remaining lightweight enough to not add unnecessary unsprung mass to your Sledge's differential assembly. This alloy is the same material used in aerospace and automotive applications where reliability under extreme stress is non-negotiable. The anodised finish goes far deeper than aesthetics—the anodising process creates a hard oxide layer that resists corrosion, chemical attack, and wear, significantly extending the service life of this critical component. For RC enthusiasts running their trucks in varied UK weather conditions, from rain-soaked courses to dusty summer tracks, this corrosion resistance is genuinely valuable. The centre differential itself is crucial to the Sledge's handling characteristics and drivetrain efficiency, managing power distribution between the front and rear axles during cornering and acceleration. A premium carrier mount like this ensures that power transfer remains consistent and predictable, maintaining the precision handling the Sledge is famous for. Whether you're upgrading after wear, replacing a damaged mount, or building a high-performance setup, this component works seamlessly with the brushless motor system of the Sledge to deliver the extreme performance that defines this platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What models is the Traxxas TRX9584T centre differential carrier mount compatible with? — This mount is specifically designed for the Traxxas Sledge belted 1/8 scale 4WD brushless electric monster truck. It is compatible with all Sledge colour variants: TRX95096-4-BLUE (Blue), TRX95096-4-ORNG (Orange), TRX95096-4-GRN (Green), and TRX95096-4-RED (Red). Always verify your truck's exact model number before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Why would I need to replace my centre differential carrier mount? — The centre differential carrier mount can wear over time due to the extreme stresses placed on it during high-speed running, jumps, and aggressive cornering. Cracks, bending, or wear to this component will affect drivetrain efficiency and handling precision. Upgrading to a new mount restores optimal performance and ensures your truck handles as designed.
- Is the orange-anodised finish just cosmetic? — No. The anodised finish provides a hard, protective oxide layer that resists corrosion, chemical damage, and wear far better than bare aluminium. This is especially important for RC trucks used in varied UK weather conditions, from wet grass tracks to dusty terrain, helping your component last longer and maintain its appearance.
- What is 6061-T6 aluminium and why is it used for this component? — 6061-T6 is an aerospace-grade aluminium alloy that has been heat-treated (the T6 designation) to achieve peak strength and hardness. It offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, excellent machinability, and superior corrosion resistance compared to standard aluminium, making it ideal for high-stress drivetrain components in RC trucks.
- Does this mount come with all the fasteners I need? — Yes. The Traxxas centre differential carrier mount includes all necessary mounting hardware for installation, so you won't need to source additional fasteners. Use the included hardware to ensure proper fitment and secure connection to your Sledge's chassis.
- Can this be used on other Traxxas models besides the Sledge? — This component is engineered specifically as an accessory part for the Traxxas Sledge platform and is not compatible with other Traxxas models. Always consult your truck's manual or contact Traxxas directly to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle.
