Overview
The KILLERBODY PAJERO ALUMINIUM BODY MOUNTS (REAR) ROUND KB48550 are premium aluminium upgrade parts designed specifically for the KB 1/10 Mitsubishi Pajero Evo 1998 RC model. If you're looking to enhance the durability and performance of your scale RC car UK setup, these rear body mounts offer a substantial upgrade from standard plastic components. These replacement mounts are engineered to provide superior rigidity and longevity, making them an essential addition for serious RC enthusiasts who demand quality and reliability from their ready to run RC vehicles and custom builds alike.
As an RC hobby enthusiast in the UK, you'll appreciate that Killer Body has crafted these mounts with precision engineering in mind. The aluminium construction ensures that your Pajero Evo body remains securely mounted whilst providing the flexibility needed for smooth suspension articulation. Whether you're bashing at the weekend or competing in local RC events, these body mounts will keep your vehicle stable and your body panel properly aligned through countless runs. The round design offers optimal clearance and reduced weight compared to some alternative mounting solutions, contributing to better overall vehicle dynamics and handling characteristics.
Upgrading to aluminium body mounts is a smart investment for anyone serious about their RC car. These components experience constant stress during driving, and plastic alternatives can crack or degrade over time, particularly with the vibrations and impacts inherent to off-road RC driving. By switching to quality aluminium, you're choosing longevity, reliability, and the peace of mind that comes with using parts from a trusted brand like Killer Body. This upgrade is suitable for both experienced RC modellers looking to enhance existing vehicles and newcomers who want their builds to start with quality components from day one.
Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — These body mounts are manufactured from high-quality aluminium, which provides superior strength and durability compared to plastic alternatives, ensuring your Pajero Evo body stays securely mounted through rigorous driving sessions and rough terrain.
- Round Design — The round profile maximises ground clearance and minimises weight whilst maintaining full structural integrity, contributing to improved suspension geometry and vehicle handling on both high-grip and low-grip surfaces.
- Genuine Killer Body Component — As authentic Killer Body parts, these mounts are engineered to exact specifications for perfect fitment with the KB 1/10 Mitsubishi Pajero Evo 1998, ensuring compatibility and reliability every time you assemble your vehicle.
- Pair of Two Mounts — The package includes two rear body mounts, providing complete coverage for the rear mounting points of your RC Pajero, allowing for balanced and stable body attachment.
- Length of 13.5cm — The carefully calculated 13.5 centimetre length ensures proper body fitment and clearance, maintaining the correct distance between the body shell and chassis for optimal aerodynamics and component protection.
- Enhanced Rigidity — Aluminium mounts provide significantly improved structural rigidity compared to stock plastic components, reducing body flex and vibration that can affect handling precision and overall driving experience.
- Extended Service Life — Unlike plastic mounts that can crack, warp, or degrade under UV exposure and temperature fluctuations, these aluminium mounts deliver consistent performance season after season, making them a cost-effective long-term investment.
- Easy Installation — These replacement mounts are designed for straightforward installation, allowing you to upgrade your existing Pajero Evo quickly and easily without requiring specialised tools or technical knowledge.
Technical Performance
The KILLERBODY PAJERO ALUMINIUM BODY MOUNTS represent the pinnacle of upgrade component engineering for 1/10 scale RC vehicles. Constructed from high-grade aluminium alloy, these mounts deliver the kind of structural integrity that brushless RC cars and high-performance setups demand. At 13.5 centimetres in length, they are precisely dimensioned to work with the KB 1/10 Mitsubishi Pajero Evo 1998 chassis geometry, ensuring perfect alignment and fitment without modification. The round design is not merely aesthetic — it's a functional engineering choice that reduces stress concentration points whilst maintaining lateral rigidity needed to keep your body panel absolutely secure during aggressive cornering and high-speed runs.
Aluminium's superior material properties make it the preferred choice for performance RC upgrades. Unlike plastic, which can fatigue and develop micro-cracks over thousands of suspension cycles, aluminium maintains its dimensional stability and strength indefinitely. This means your Pajero Evo body will remain perfectly aligned lap after lap, run after run, contributing to predictable handling characteristics and eliminating the frustration of loose or rattling body panels. The material also offers better vibration damping than alternatives, creating a more refined driving experience. For RC enthusiasts in the UK who invest time and money into their vehicles, upgrading to genuine Killer Body aluminium components like these mounts is a simple way to dramatically improve durability, reliability, and overall vehicle performance without requiring expensive overhauls or complete rebuilds.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these body mounts fit my RC car? — These mounts are specifically engineered for the KB 1/10 Mitsubishi Pajero Evo 1998, so fitment is guaranteed if you own this model. The 13.5cm length and round design are precisely calculated to match the chassis geometry of this particular vehicle. If you own a different Killer Body Pajero variant, we recommend checking compatibility with our customer service team before ordering.
- Why should I upgrade from plastic body mounts? — Plastic body mounts degrade over time through UV exposure, temperature cycling, and the constant vibration from driving. Aluminium mounts offer superior durability, maintain their shape indefinitely, and provide better structural rigidity that keeps your body panel perfectly aligned. This results in better handling, longer part lifespan, and less maintenance overall.
- Are these difficult to install? — No, these are direct replacement components that use the same mounting points as your original mounts. Installation requires only basic tools and takes just a few minutes. Remove the old mounts, align the new aluminium ones, and secure them — it's a straightforward upgrade that any RC enthusiast can complete.
- Will these mounts work with brushless RC motors? — Yes, absolutely. These body mounts are completely motor-agnostic and work with any drivetrain configuration. They're particularly recommended if you're running a brushless setup, as the improved rigidity helps manage the additional vibration from high-performance brushless motors.
- Can I use these on a modified Pajero chassis? — These mounts are engineered for the standard KB 1/10 Mitsubishi Pajero Evo 1998 chassis. If you've made significant modifications to your frame geometry, we suggest checking compatibility. Contact our customer service team with photos of your build if you're unsure.
- How do these compare to other body mount upgrades? — Killer Body is a recognised manufacturer of quality RC components, and these aluminium mounts represent a genuine performance upgrade. They offer the perfect balance of weight savings, structural integrity, and cost-effectiveness compared to both OEM plastic alternatives and other aftermarket solutions.
