Key Features
- Widened Suspension Stance — The WideMaxx system expands the truck's overall track width, meaning the suspension points are spread further apart, creating a more stable platform during cornering and reducing body roll when pushing hard through turns or navigating challenging terrain.
- Enhanced Cornering Stability — By widening the stance, the suspension geometry becomes more planted and composed, allowing for sharper turn-in response and improved high-speed cornering performance, which translates to faster lap times and more confident driving.
- Toughest Composite Material Construction — Traxxas has moulded this kit from their hardest-wearing composite material, ensuring the suspension arms and components withstand the demands of aggressive driving, impacts, and repeated stress cycles without cracking or failing prematurely.
- Front and Rear Suspension Arms Included — The kit provides complete front and rear suspension arm replacements, meaning you get a comprehensive upgrade that affects both ends of the vehicle for balanced, predictable handling across all driving conditions.
- Extended One-Piece Front Toe Links — The included extended front toe links are engineered as one-piece units, eliminating potential weak points at connection joints and providing superior rigidity for more responsive steering and better stability during aggressive cornering.
- Extended Outer Half Shafts — Wider half shafts are included to accommodate the increased track width of the WideMaxx system, ensuring proper geometry and eliminating binding or alignment issues that could otherwise occur.
- Multiple High-Impact Colour Options — Moulded in vibrant, fade-resistant colours like this brilliant green, the suspension kit allows you to express your personal style and customise your RC car UK setup to stand out from the crowd.
- OEM Traxxas Quality and Compatibility — As an official Traxxas product designed specifically for the Mini Maxx platform, every component is engineered to fit perfectly and work seamlessly with existing Mini Maxx components without modification.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Mini Maxx WideMaxx suspension upgrade represents genuine performance engineering designed to transform how your Mini Maxx handles on track or trail. The suspension system has been engineered using Traxxas's toughest composite material, which provides exceptional durability whilst maintaining the precise tolerances necessary for consistent performance lap after lap. The wider stance created by this kit reduces the centre of gravity effect during cornering, meaning your truck maintains better grip and composure when pushing through turns at speed. The front and rear suspension arms work in concert with the extended one-piece front toe links to create a more responsive, direct steering feel that allows drivers to place the truck exactly where they want it. The extended outer half shafts ensure that the wider track width doesn't compromise driveline angles or introduce binding during suspension travel. This is the kind of comprehensive suspension upgrade that delivers measurable improvements in handling precision, cornering speed, and overall driveability for both competitive drivers and experienced hobbyists. The engineering quality reflects Traxxas's reputation as a leader in ready to run RC technology and performance upgrades.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will the WideMaxx suspension kit fit my Mini Maxx without modification? — Yes, the WideMaxx system is engineered specifically for the Mini Maxx platform and requires no modification to your existing truck. The components are designed to drop in and work perfectly with your current Mini Maxx setup, though you may need to remove your existing suspension arms and half shafts.
- What is the difference between WideMaxx and standard Mini Maxx suspension? — The WideMaxx system widens your truck's overall stance by using extended suspension arms and outer half shafts, creating a wider track width. This wider platform provides noticeably improved cornering stability, reduced body roll during aggressive manoeuvres, and a more planted feel when driving at speed, making it ideal for drivers who want better handling performance.
- Does this suspension kit improve top speed? — The WideMaxx suspension primarily improves cornering stability and handling precision rather than top speed. However, by providing better traction and composure through turns, you may achieve faster overall lap times because you can corner harder and more confidently without losing grip or rolling the chassis.
- What material are these suspension components made from? — All components in this WideMaxx kit are moulded from Traxxas's toughest composite material, which provides exceptional durability and resistance to impacts, cracks, and wear whilst maintaining precise tolerances for consistent performance.
- Is this suspension kit suitable for beginners? — Yes, the suspension upgrade is suitable for any Mini Maxx owner looking to improve handling. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance knowledge, and the improved handling actually makes the truck easier to control, especially during cornering, which can be beneficial for developing drivers.
- Do I need to replace anything else on my Mini Maxx to use this kit? — The suspension kit is self-contained and includes everything needed for the upgrade. You'll simply remove your existing suspension components and install these new ones. No other parts require replacement, though upgrading to performance shock absorbers separately could further improve handling if desired.
- What colours does this kit come in? — The WideMaxx suspension kit is available in multiple high-impact colours for maximum customisation. This particular kit is finished in striking green, allowing you to create a fully coordinated RC car UK setup that reflects your personal style.
