As a dedicated chassis spare part, it has been designed with FTX's commitment to quality and performance in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a body mount and why does my FTX Colt need one? — A body mount is the component that connects your RC buggy's plastic body shell to the metal chassis underneath. It allows the body to flex slightly with impacts whilst staying securely attached, protecting your chassis from damage and maintaining clean lines. Over time, body mounts can wear out or crack from repeated impacts, and replacing them is one of the most common and straightforward maintenance tasks in RC car ownership.

- Is this a genuine FTX part? — Absolutely. This is an official FTX component, not a clone or third-party equivalent, meaning it meets the exact specifications and quality standards that FTX engineers designed for the Colt platform.
- Do I need specialist tools to fit this body mount? — No, body mounts are among the easiest RC components to install. Most users can fit them with just basic hand tools like a screwdriver. If you're new to RC car maintenance, this is a perfect starting point for learning how to service your vehicle.
- Can I use this with other FTX models? — This part is specifically designed for the FTX Colt. Whilst some components across the FTX range may be compatible, you should always verify fitment before installation. Consult your FTX Colt manual or contact our team for guidance on cross-compatibility.
