Technical Performance
The Traxxas Clipless mounts, body (left & right) represent the pinnacle of convenience engineering in the RC hobby. Traxxas developed the clipless body mounting system to address one of the frustrations that rally and circuit racing enthusiasts face: the time and hassle of removing and installing bodies with traditional screw mounts. By designing mounts that work with a simple press-fit and clip-release system, Traxxas has made body swaps, cleaning, and maintenance significantly faster and more user-friendly. The mounts are manufactured from durable materials engineered to withstand the constant stress and vibration that occurs during high-speed rally racing, whether you're running a brushless electric motor or exploring other powertrain options. The engineering precision ensures that your Ford Fiesta ST Rally body stays perfectly aligned and secure during aggressive cornering, acceleration, and jumping that rally racing demands. With proper maintenance and occasional replacement when worn, these mounts will provide years of reliable service. The clipless system also reduces the risk of over-tightening screws, which can strip threads and damage both the body and chassis — a common problem with traditional mounting systems. For UK RC car enthusiasts looking to maintain their Traxxas Ford Fiesta ST Rally in peak condition, these genuine replacement mounts are an investment in reliability and ease of use.
