Technical Performance
The Associated ProLite 4x4 Rear Bumper AS7120 is engineered to the same exacting standards that Team Associated applies across their entire ProLite 4x4 platform. As a replacement bumper set for a 1/10 scale short course truck, it must withstand significant impacts and stresses whilst remaining lightweight enough not to affect the truck's performance characteristics. The bumper is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with the ProLite 4x4's chassis and bodywork, using identical mounting points and assembly methods to ensure zero compatibility issues. In terms of build quality, this is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part, which means it undergoes the same quality control and testing processes as the bumpers supplied with new ProLite 4x4 vehicles. The material construction and engineering provide adequate protection against the kinds of impacts and rough treatment that short course trucks typically encounter during competitive racing and recreational bashing. Whether you're running your ProLite 4x4 on a prepared short course track, through natural terrain, or in aggressive backyard bashing sessions, this bumper will protect the rear of your truck and maintain its structural integrity across extended use.
