Overview
The Traxxas Body mounts (front & rear) (left & right) TRX9134 are essential replacement parts for RC enthusiasts maintaining their Traxxas models in the UK. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or a weekend basher, body mounts are critical components that secure your vehicle's bodywork to the chassis, ensuring stability during aggressive driving and protecting your investment from damage. These genuine Traxxas replacement mounts are engineered to restore your RC model to factory specifications when original components become worn, damaged or lost through regular use and impact.
If you've been enjoying high-speed runs with your ready to run RC crawler or truck, you'll know that body mounts take considerable punishment. The constant vibration, impacts and flexing of the chassis during off-road adventures can gradually wear these mounts down. By upgrading to fresh, genuine Traxxas body mounts, you'll restore the precise body-to-chassis geometry that Traxxas engineers designed into your model, improving handling characteristics and ensuring your bodywork stays securely in place during even the most challenging driving sessions. This is particularly important if you've noticed your body shifting or rattling during acceleration or cornering, which indicates that your current mounts may have reached the end of their service life.
These mounts are specifically designed to fit the #9129 body, making them the correct choice if you're running that particular bodywork on your Traxxas model. The comprehensive hardware kit included means you'll have everything you need to complete the installation quickly and get back to enjoying your RC experience without needing to source additional fasteners from multiple suppliers.
Key Features
- Genuine Traxxas OEM Parts — These are authentic original equipment manufacturer body mounts produced by Traxxas themselves, ensuring perfect fitment and longevity compared to aftermarket alternatives. Using genuine parts protects your warranty and guarantees compatibility with your specific Traxxas model.
- Complete Hardware Kit Included — The package contains four 2.6x10mm button cap screws (BCS), eight 1.6x8mm self-tapping button cap screws, and two 2.5x12mm cap screws (CS), meaning you have all the fasteners needed for installation without additional shopping or trips to the hobby shop.
- Front and Rear Coverage — This set provides both front and rear body mounts in left and right configurations, giving you a complete solution for securing your body regardless of which section needs replacement or restoration.
- Self-Tapping Fasteners Included — The self-tapping screws eliminate the need for pre-drilling in many applications, making installation faster and more convenient for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels.
- Compatible with #9129 Body — These mounts are specifically engineered for the #9129 body fitment, ensuring precise alignment and secure mounting without modification or adapters.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Body mounts represent a precision engineering solution for RC vehicle maintenance and repair. Body mounts may seem like simple plastic or composite components, but they play a crucial role in your RC car's overall performance and structural integrity. Traxxas manufactures these mounts from durable, impact-resistant materials capable of withstanding the constant stress and vibration generated during high-speed running and aggressive off-road driving. The inclusion of multiple fastener sizes (2.6x10mm, 1.6x8mm, and 2.5x12mm) demonstrates Traxxas's attention to detail, as different mounting points require different hardware strengths and configurations. The self-tapping 1.6x8mm screws are particularly valuable for quick installation, whilst the larger diameter button cap screws provide robust holding power where maximum strength is needed. The engineering behind these mounts ensures that your body remains perfectly centred on your chassis, preventing the subtle misalignments that can lead to aerodynamic problems, handling changes, and accelerated wear on other components. For RC enthusiasts in the UK running everything from ready to run RC crawlers to competition-grade racing vehicles, maintaining proper body mount integrity is essential for consistent performance and longevity of your investment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles does this body mount kit fit? — These mounts are specifically designed for #9129 body fitment on compatible Traxxas models. The part number TRX9134 is recognised as compatible with the Traxxas TRX-6 Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG XL-5 1:10 6x6 RTD Crawler in both black and silver variants. Always verify your model number before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- How do I know if my body mounts need replacing? — Signs that your body mounts require attention include visible cracks or damage to the plastic components, rattling or movement of the body during acceleration or cornering, body panels that sit unevenly or misaligned relative to the chassis, and obvious play when you gently move the body by hand. If you notice any of these symptoms after running your RC model, fresh mounts should restore proper alignment and eliminate unwanted movement.
- Are these mounts difficult to install? — Body mount replacement is generally straightforward, even for RC enthusiasts with limited mechanical experience. The kit includes all necessary fasteners in the correct sizes, and the self-tapping screws make installation particularly quick. Most installations can be completed in under 30 minutes with basic tools like a screwdriver and hex key set.
- What is the difference between button cap screws and standard screws? — Button cap screws (BCS) feature a rounded, low-profile head that protects the screw and looks cleaner than standard Phillips head screws. They're particularly useful on visible areas of your RC model where appearance matters, and they're less likely to snag on obstacles during driving. The self-tapping variety cut their own threads, eliminating the need for pre-drilled holes.
- Can I use aftermarket body mounts instead of genuine Traxxas parts? — Whilst some aftermarket alternatives exist, genuine Traxxas body mounts are engineered specifically for your model and guaranteed to fit perfectly. Aftermarket parts may require modification or shimming to achieve proper alignment, potentially affecting handling and longevity. For the modest cost difference, authentic Traxxas parts offer better value and peace of mind.
- Do these mounts come with installation instructions? — Traxxas body mounts typically follow standard installation procedures that match your vehicle's manual. The fastener sizes included are matched to Traxxas specifications, ensuring proper fit and holding power without needing to consult additional resources.
