Technical Performance
The Traxxas Body Support TRX9513X represents the pinnacle of Traxxas engineering for the Sledge Belted platform. This 1:8 scale body support assembly is engineered to work seamlessly with the Traxxas Sledge Belted 1:8 4WD brushless electric monster truck, a high-performance machine capable of delivering aggressive acceleration and impressive top speeds thanks to its brushless drivetrain. The body support assembly maintains the vehicle's aerodynamics whilst providing robust protection to the bodywork. The pre-assembled design means all components are perfectly aligned and tested before dispatch, eliminating the guesswork from installation. The front mount provides secure attachment at the vehicle's front end, whilst the rear latch ensures the body remains firmly in place during high-speed runs and over rough terrain. The roof skid pads are strategically positioned to absorb impacts from the most vulnerable area of the body—the roof—which often makes contact with obstacles during flips, jumps, and aggressive manoeuvres. The materials used in this assembly are selected for their durability and impact resistance, ensuring that whether you're bashing on weekends or competing in organised events, your Sledge's body stays protected. This genuine OEM component is the correct choice for anyone serious about maintaining their brushless RC monster truck to factory specifications.
