Overview
The Traxxas Wing mounts (left & right) TRX9046 are essential chassis spare parts designed specifically for the Traxxas Jato 4x4 range of high-performance 1/8 scale RC buggies. Whether you own a Jato 4x4 BL-2S brushless model or the more powerful Jato 4x4 VXL with 4S LiPo compatibility, these wing mounts are genuine OEM components that will keep your RC buggy performing at its best. As a dedicated RC car enthusiast in the UK, maintaining your off-road RC buggy with authentic Traxxas spares ensures reliability, longevity and optimal performance whether you're racing competitively or enjoying weekend bashing sessions.
Wing mounts are critical structural components that secure the rear wing assembly to your RC buggy's chassis. The rear wing provides essential aerodynamic stability at high speeds, improving traction and handling characteristics on both smooth and rough terrain. When your existing mounts become damaged through impact, wear or aggressive driving, replacing them with genuine Traxxas wing mounts restores your buggy's aerodynamic performance and ensures the wing stays firmly in place during hard cornering and acceleration.
This pair includes both left and right wing mounts, giving you everything needed to fully restore your Jato 4x4's rear wing assembly. Available for ready to run RC buggy models across the entire Jato 4x4 range, these spares represent excellent value for money at just £8.31. For anyone serious about maintaining their brushless RC buggy in peak condition, the TRX9046 wing mounts are an indispensable addition to your spare parts collection.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas wing mounts are precision-engineered bracket components designed to withstand the stresses and impacts inherent in high-performance 1/8 scale RC buggy racing and bashing. These mounts provide the structural connection between your Jato 4x4's rear wing and the main chassis frame, and they must maintain rigidity under the aerodynamic forces generated at speeds that brushless 4WD buggies are capable of achieving. The Jato 4x4 BL-2S models utilise 2S LiPo battery power with brushless motor technology for impressive acceleration and top-end speed, whilst the Jato 4x4 VXL variants step up to 4S LiPo battery compatibility for even more aggressive performance. In both cases, maintaining proper wing mount integrity is essential for consistent handling characteristics and optimal weight distribution. The left and right mounts work together to ensure the rear wing is perfectly aligned and secured, preventing flex or movement that could compromise aerodynamic efficiency or cause the wing to detach during high-impact situations. Built from durable materials typical of Traxxas chassis components, these mounts are engineered to absorb lateral stresses whilst maintaining the precise geometry required for the wing to function correctly. Whether you're running your Jato 4x4 on rocky trails, dusty tracks or technical circuit courses, these mounts will keep your wing securely in place and your buggy handling predictably through every corner and jump.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas Jato 4x4 models are compatible with the TRX9046 wing mounts? — These wing mounts are compatible with the complete Jato 4x4 range, including the Jato 4x4 BL-2S 1/8 4WD RTR brushless buggy in red, black, blue and green, as well as the Jato 4x4 VXL 1/8 4WD RTR brushless buggy in green, orange, blue and pink. If you own any variant of the Jato 4x4, these mounts will fit your model.
- Why would I need replacement wing mounts? — Wing mounts can become damaged through hard impacts, crashes, aggressive bashing or general wear and tear. Damaged or bent mounts may allow your rear wing to shift position, flex excessively or detach completely, which will compromise your buggy's handling and aerodynamic performance. Replacing worn mounts restores your RC buggy to full performance specifications.
- Are these genuine Traxxas parts? — Yes, these are authentic OEM Traxxas spares, manufactured by Traxxas to their exact specifications. Genuine parts ensure perfect fitment and compatibility with your Jato 4x4.
- How difficult is it to install new wing mounts? — Installation is straightforward and requires minimal tools. Simply unbolt your damaged mounts from the chassis and wing assembly, then install the new mounts in their place. Most users can complete this job in under ten minutes, making it an ideal DIY repair for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels.
- What is the difference between the BL-2S and VXL variants? — The Jato 4x4 BL-2S is powered by a 2S LiPo battery and is ideal for users seeking a more manageable power delivery, whilst the Jato 4x4 VXL accepts 4S LiPo batteries for significantly higher power output and performance. Both variants use the same wing mount design, so compatibility is universal across the Jato 4x4 range.
