Technical Performance
This body detail and lighting upgrade set is manufactured to Traxxas' exacting standards using high-quality materials designed to withstand the demands of active RC use. The chrome front grille provides a premium finish that resists tarnishing and maintains its appearance through regular use on UK RC tracks, outdoor parks, and indoor surfaces. The blue tailgate panel is engineered from the same durable polycarbonate or composite materials used throughout the TRX-4MT body range, ensuring it matches the strength and flexibility of your existing chassis components whilst providing an authentic colour match to classic BIGFOOT No. 1 liveries. The rear LED lenses are precision-fitted to the tailgate assembly, providing consistent light output and reliable performance through multiple charging cycles and driving sessions. All components are designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing 9812-series body mounting system, allowing for quick installation without any fitment issues or compatibility concerns. The engineering behind these parts reflects Traxxas' commitment to quality and attention to detail, ensuring that your customised TRX-4MT not only looks authentic but also maintains the durability and reliability expected from a premium RC product.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these BIGFOOT No. 1 parts fit my TRX-4MT monster truck? — Yes, these parts are designed specifically for the 9812-series body platform used on all TRX-4MT models. Whether you own the F-150 or K10 variant in any colour, these parts are direct fit replacements that require no modifications. Simply remove your existing grille and tailgate panel and install these BIGFOOT-branded components.
- What colour is the tailgate panel? — The tailgate panel is blue, matching the classic BIGFOOT No. 1 colour scheme and providing authentic monster truck styling. This blue finish coordinates well with both the F-150 and K10 TRX-4MT models across all available colour variants.
- Are the LED lenses included with a battery or power source? — The LED rear lenses are included in this kit and feature rear lens assemblies (left and right). Depending on your TRX-4MT configuration, these may integrate with your existing lighting system or function as visual enhancements. Refer to your specific TRX-4MT documentation for lighting integration details.
- Do I need any special tools to install these parts? — No special tools are required for installation. The front grille, tailgate panel, and LED lenses are designed as direct replacements for existing components on the 9812-series body. Standard RC hobby tools such as a small Phillips screwdriver may be useful, but most installations can be completed with hand assembly.
- Can I use these parts with other body styles? — These parts are engineered specifically for the 9812-series body platform. They will not fit other TRX-4MT body variants or other Traxxas RC models without modification. Always verify compatibility with your specific body model before purchasing.
- What is the difference between this parts kit and a complete BIGFOOT No. 1 body kit? — This parts kit includes the front grille, tailgate panel, and rear LED lenses for visual customisation and detailing. A complete body kit (such as part number 9844X) may include additional components such as engine detailing and comprehensive decal sets for a fully themed build. This kit is ideal if you already have a TRX-4MT body and want to add BIGFOOT styling details.
- Will these parts work with both left-hand and right-hand drive radio systems? — Yes, the grille, tailgate panel, and LED lenses are purely visual and mounting components; they do not interact with your radio system or drive configuration. They will work identically regardless of your transmitter setup.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. This is a parts upgrade rather than a complete assembly project. If you already own a TRX-4MT and are comfortable with basic RC maintenance and customisation, installing these parts is straightforward. The direct fit design means there is minimal risk of fitment issues or compatibility problems, making it an ideal first customisation project for newer RC enthusiasts.
