Technical Performance
The TRX6416 body mount post assembly represents professional-grade engineering for the RC rally car market. The body mount posts serve as the critical interface between your rally car's body shell and the chassis frame, absorbing vibrations and maintaining structural alignment during high-speed driving, cornering, and challenging terrain. The two body post pivots included in this set allow for proper articulation and movement, preventing stress concentrations that could lead to body cracking or frame damage. The 2.5x18mm screw pins are precision-engineered fasteners that secure all components together with the correct tension—too loose and components shift, too tight and materials become damaged. For owners of Traxxas rally cars competing in the UK RC racing scene or enjoying recreational driving, having genuine replacement body mount posts is essential maintenance. The materials and construction methods used in these components ensure they withstand the demands of rally car driving, from smooth track racing to rough off-road bashing. These are not universal or generic body mount posts; they are specifically engineered to match the exact specifications of compatible Traxxas rally models, ensuring perfect fitment, proper body alignment, and optimised performance characteristics.
