ARRMA 1/10 Clear Body with Decals: BIG ROCK CREW CAB 4X4 BLX Z-ARA402284

Overview

The ARRMA 1/10 Clear Body with Decals for the BIG ROCK CREW CAB 4X4 3S BLX is an essential replacement or customisation part for enthusiasts looking to refresh their RC monster truck or create a unique, custom painted look. This high-quality bodyshell is designed specifically for the ARRMA BIG ROCK 3S 4X4 brushless monster truck platform, making it the perfect solution for bashers and collectors across the UK who want to personalise their vehicles. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK enthusiast or exploring the world of ready to run RC vehicles, this clear polycarbonate body shell offers the ideal foundation for creating a truly bespoke monster truck that reflects your individual style and preferences.

This is not just a simple plastic shell — it's a professionally engineered component manufactured to ARRMA's exacting standards. The clear body comes pre-trimmed for fast and easy installation, saving you time and effort during assembly. What sets this bodyshell apart is the inclusion of a vinyl decal sheet that adds authentic detail and character to your finished build, whilst the protective over-spray film makes the custom painting process straightforward and hassle-free. Whether you're restoring a damaged shell or simply want to experiment with a fresh colour scheme, this body offers tremendous versatility for customisation projects.

The BIG ROCK CREW CAB design captures the distinctive look of a modern crew cab pickup truck, scaled down to 1/10 size for RC racing and bashing. The crew cab configuration provides better visual proportions compared to single-cab designs, giving your RC monster truck a more authentic and imposing appearance on the track or in the garden. This bodyshell is compatible with the ARRMA BIG ROCK 3S 4X4 RTR brushless monster truck models, ensuring perfect fitment and professional results every time.

Key Features

• Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate material, which provides exceptional impact resistance and durability that standard plastic cannot match. This means your bodyshell can withstand the rigours of hard bashing and racing without cracking or splitting, protecting your investment over the long term and reducing the need for frequent replacements.
• Included Vinyl Decal Sheet — A complete vinyl decal sheet specifically designed for the BIG ROCK CREW CAB 4X4 3S BLX is included with this product, allowing you to add authentic factory-style graphics and detail without the need for additional purchases. These decals bring your custom painted body to life and add visual depth and character to your finished RC monster truck.
• Pre-Trimmed for Easy Fit — The bodyshell arrives pre-trimmed to the correct dimensions, meaning you can skip the tedious work of cutting and trimming the shell yourself. This feature saves valuable time during the build process and ensures precise fitment onto your chassis without any gaps or misalignment issues.
• Protective Over-Spray Film — A protective over-spray film is included to shield the interior surfaces during custom painting, preventing paint overspray from contaminating the inside of the body and potentially damaging internal components. This professional-grade protection makes the painting process faster, cleaner and more straightforward for UK RC enthusiasts of all skill levels.
• Clear Finish for Customisation — The unpainted clear finish provides a blank canvas for your creative vision, whether you want to create a matt colour scheme, a metallic finish, or complex multi-colour designs. Clear polycarbonate is the preferred choice for custom painters because it allows light to pass through uniformly, resulting in consistent colour representation across the entire body.
• 1/10 Scale Monster Truck Design — Scaled at 1/10, this body is proportioned perfectly for the standard 1/10 RC monster truck chassis platform, ensuring correct fitment and authentic proportions that look right on the vehicle and in photographs.

Technical Performance

This bodyshell is engineered specifically for use with the ARRMA BIG ROCK 3S 4X4 brushless monster truck platform, which is renowned for its robust construction and impressive performance capabilities. The polycarbonate material used in this body offers superior impact resistance compared to traditional ABS plastic, whilst maintaining excellent flexibility to reduce the risk of permanent deformation after impacts. The 1/10 scale design works in conjunction with the BIG ROCK's 4WD configuration and brushless drivetrain, which delivers responsive handling and reliable performance across diverse terrain types. The crew cab body style provides better weight distribution and visual balance than single-cab designs, contributing to stable handling characteristics during high-speed runs. At 1/10 scale, this body is perfectly suited for recreational bashing, backyard courses, and competitive track environments. The inclusion of window masks indicates professional manufacturing standards, allowing you to mask windows before painting to achieve clean, professional-looking results. The 327mm wheelbase specification is compatible with the standard BIG ROCK chassis platform, ensuring that this body will mount securely and function flawlessly with your existing RC monster truck setup. The polycarbonate material requires the use of polycarbonate-safe model paint specifically formulated not to crack or cloud the clear plastic, so ensure you select the correct paint type when customising your shell.

This durability translates to longer body life and fewer replacement purchases over time, making it a cost-effective choice for serious bashers and racers throughout the UK.
• Is this body pre-trimmed or do I need to cut it? — This bodyshell arrives pre-trimmed to the correct dimensions and ready for mounting, eliminating the tedious cutting and trimming process. This professional pre-trimming ensures precise fitment onto your chassis and saves you time during the build and customisation process.
• What is the wheelbase measurement of this body? — The body is designed for a 327mm (12.87 inch) wheelbase, which matches the ARRMA BIG ROCK 3S 4X4 platform perfectly, guaranteeing correct proportions and secure mounting on your vehicle.
• Are decals and window masks included? — Yes, this package includes both a vinyl decal sheet designed specifically for the BIG ROCK CREW CAB 4X4 3S BLX and window masks for clean, professional painting results. You don't need to purchase these items separately, making this an excellent all-in-one value proposition.
