Technical Performance
The Traxxas Body mounts TRX8315 are engineered components that play a vital role in the structural integrity and performance of your 4TEC 2.0 RC car chassis. These mounts serve as the connection points between your #8311 body shell and the underlying chassis frame, and they're designed to allow controlled flex whilst maintaining structural rigidity. The precise engineering ensures that your body remains securely attached during acceleration, braking, and cornering, whilst the mount design absorbs vibration and shock forces transmitted from the chassis to the body. Made from durable materials selected by Traxxas engineers, these mounts are built to withstand the stresses of high-speed driving, track racing, and recreational bashing. The consistent quality control in their manufacture ensures that each mount provides reliable performance, identical fitment, and long-lasting durability. Installation is straightforward, requiring only basic familiarity with RC car assembly, and once fitted, they require minimal maintenance beyond occasional visual inspection for wear or damage. The engineering behind these mounts reflects Traxxas's commitment to providing replacement parts that perform identically to the original equipment, ensuring your 4TEC 2.0 maintains its factory handling balance and performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these body mounts fit my Traxxas 4TEC 2.0 RC car? — Yes, these mounts are specifically designed for the Traxxas 4TEC 2.0 platform and will fit the #8311 body shell that comes as standard with the 4TEC 2.0. They are genuine OEM Traxxas parts manufactured to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect compatibility without any modification required.
- How do I know if I need to replace my body mounts? — Body mounts may need replacement if your body shell is sitting loose on the chassis, if you notice excessive vibration being transmitted to the body during driving, if the mounts have visible cracks or damage, or if you're experiencing difficulty keeping your body shell properly positioned. Upgrading to fresh body mounts is also a good maintenance practice if you notice any handling changes or body movement during high-speed running.
- Are these genuine Traxxas parts or aftermarket replacements? — These are genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Traxxas parts, not aftermarket alternatives. They are produced by Traxxas to the exact specifications used in the factory assembly process, ensuring identical fitment, durability, and performance compared to the original mounts supplied with your 4TEC 2.0.
- What tools do I need to install these body mounts? — Body mount installation is straightforward and typically requires only basic hand tools such as a small screwdriver or hex key (depending on your fastening system). Most 4TEC 2.0 owners can complete the installation in just a few minutes without requiring specialist RC tools or expertise, making this a perfect DIY upgrade for UK RC enthusiasts.
- Can I use these mounts with a different body shell? — These mounts are specifically engineered to fit the #8311 body shell used on the 4TEC 2.0. If you're using a different body shell, you may need alternative mounts designed for that specific body. We recommend checking the compatibility with your body shell manufacturer or consulting with our expert team at RC Model Shop for guidance on suitable alternatives.
- How often should I replace my body mounts? — With proper care and maintenance, quality Traxxas body mounts should last many seasons of regular driving. However, if you use your RC car frequently for competitive racing or aggressive bashing, you may want to inspect them regularly and replace them if you notice any cracks, permanent deformation, or looseness. As a maintenance best practice, many serious racers refresh their body mounts annually or during major chassis rebuilds.
