Key Features
- Billet 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — The carriers are manufactured from aerospace-grade billet aluminium, which provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and superior precision compared to cast alternatives. This material choice ensures that the carriers can withstand the rigorous demands of RC racing and bashing whilst maintaining tight tolerances for accurate steering and suspension geometry. The 6061-T6 alloy is recognised throughout the RC and engineering industries as the ideal choice for high-performance chassis components.
- Brilliantly Anodised Blue Finish — The vibrant blue anodised coating does far more than look striking on your RC vehicle; it also provides important corrosion resistance and durability. The anodising process creates a hard, protective oxide layer that prevents oxidation and ensures the carriers maintain their appearance and structural integrity through countless hours of use in various weather conditions across the UK.
- High-Contrast Laser Etched TRX Logo — Each carrier features a precisely laser-etched Traxxas logo that serves as both a quality identifier and a mark of authenticity. This detail adds a professional, finished appearance to your RC model and makes it immediately clear that you're using genuine Traxxas components rather than generic alternatives.
- Left and Right Pair Included — These carriers are supplied as a complete left and right pair, meaning you have everything required to perform a full rear stub axle carrier replacement on your compatible Traxxas X-Series vehicle. This eliminates the need to purchase multiple items or hunt for matching components.
- Improved Vehicle Control and Performance — By upgrading to these precision-engineered carriers, you'll experience noticeably improved steering response, more consistent handling characteristics, and better overall vehicle control. The superior material quality and manufacturing precision directly translate to better performance during both competitive RC racing and recreational bashing sessions.
- Enhanced Visual Appeal — The striking blue colour adds genuine visual impact to your RC car, transforming the appearance of the rear suspension area. For RC enthusiasts who take pride in the aesthetics of their vehicles, this upgrade provides a simple yet effective way to personalise and refresh your model's appearance.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Carriers, stub axle (Blue) are engineered with the same precision and attention to detail that has made Traxxas a leader in the RC hobby sector globally. These components are manufactured from billet 6061-T6 aluminium, a material specifically chosen for its superior strength, durability and machinability. The billet construction process, where components are machined directly from solid aluminium blocks, ensures dimensional accuracy and eliminates the porosity and inconsistencies sometimes found in cast alternatives. This precision engineering is critical because stub axle carriers play a fundamental role in maintaining your RC vehicle's suspension geometry, steering alignment, and overall handling characteristics. The 6061-T6 aluminium alloy provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring that these carriers add minimal unsprung weight whilst delivering maximum rigidity where it matters most. The anodised finish not only creates that distinctive vibrant blue appearance but also provides a hard, corrosion-resistant surface that protects the aluminium from oxidation and ensures long-term durability even when your RC vehicle is exposed to moisture, salt spray, and UV radiation. Whether you're operating your Traxxas Mini Maxx BL-2S, Mini Rally VXL Ford RS200, Mini Slash BL-2S 4X4, or Mini XRT VXL-3S in various UK weather conditions, these carriers will maintain their performance and appearance. The precision manufacturing ensures that both the left and right carriers are identically dimensioned, which is essential for maintaining balanced suspension geometry and predictable handling. These components represent a worthwhile investment for any RC car owner seeking to maximise the longevity, performance and visual appeal of their Traxxas vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas models are compatible with these stub axle carriers? — These blue anodised carriers are compatible with the entire Traxxas Mini X-Series range, including the Mini Maxx BL-2S (black, orange, green, and blue variants), Mini Rally VXL Ford RS200 (standard, grey, red, and blue versions), Mini Slash BL-2S 4X4 RTR Short Course Truck (yellow, orange, pink, and green colours), and Mini XRT VXL-3S (red, blue, green, and orange variants). If you own any of these ready-to-run RC vehicles, these carriers will fit perfectly and provide an immediate upgrade to your chassis.
- Are these carriers suitable for both racing and bashing? — Absolutely. The 6061-T6 aluminium construction and precision engineering make these carriers equally suitable for competitive RC racing where precision and reliability are paramount, as well as weekend bashing sessions where durability and impact resistance are essential. Whether you're competing in local RC racing events across the UK or simply enjoying casual recreational driving, these carriers will deliver reliable performance.
- Why choose aluminium carriers instead of plastic alternatives? — Aluminium carriers offer several significant advantages over plastic components. They provide superior strength and rigidity, maintain dimensional accuracy under stress and temperature variations, offer better corrosion resistance, and generally deliver improved handling characteristics due to their lower flex and more precise fit. The investment in quality aluminium components typically results in longer component lifespan, more consistent performance, and the ability to handle more aggressive driving styles without damage.
- How difficult is it to install these carriers on my RC car? — Stub axle carrier replacement is a straightforward maintenance task that most RC enthusiasts can complete with basic tools and mechanical knowledge. You'll need to remove the wheels, unbolt the old carriers, and install these new ones in their place. The job typically takes 30-45 minutes for both sides. Traxxas provides comprehensive instruction manuals and video guides, and our team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance if you need additional support during installation.
- Will these blue carriers match my specific Traxxas model colour? — These carriers are designed to complement Traxxas vehicles with blue colour schemes and will add a cohesive, professional appearance to any X-Series model. The vibrant blue anodised finish matches Traxxas's blue paint options across their range. If you own a Traxxas Mini Maxx, Mini Rally VXL, Mini Slash, or Mini XRT in blue, these carriers will integrate perfectly with your vehicle's colour scheme.
- How long will the anodised finish last? — The anodised coating is a hard, durable oxide layer created through an electrochemical process. This finish is specifically designed to resist corrosion, UV damage, and wear from normal use. With typical RC usage and basic maintenance, the anodised blue finish will maintain its appearance and protective properties for years. The coating is far more durable than painted finishes and requires no special maintenance beyond occasional cleaning with mild soap and water.
