Technical Performance

These Traxxas motor mounts represent precision engineering at its finest, utilising aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium that delivers exceptional strength-to-weight performance critical for RC vehicles. The machining process creates tight tolerances and clean lines that ensure repeatable, consistent mounting of your #3461 motor, which translates to reliable power delivery and minimal vibration during operation. The orange-anodised coating is not merely cosmetic—it's a functional surface treatment that provides genuine corrosion resistance and durability enhancement, particularly important when your RC model UK is exposed to moisture, dust and the wear associated with competitive racing or aggressive off-road driving. These mounts are engineered to withstand the stresses of high-performance 4WD brushless RC monster truck driving, where vibration, acceleration forces and impact loads are significant factors. The inclusion of threadlock-equipped hardware in two sizes (3x10mm and 4x12mm) ensures your motor mounting remains absolutely secure through hundreds of hours of driving, whether you're enjoying casual bashings or serious competition.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these motor mounts compatible with my Traxxas Maxx RC monster truck? — Yes, these motor mounts are specifically designed for Traxxas Maxx monster trucks and fit all WideMaxx variants including the Red, Rock N Roll, and Green versions. They are engineered for use with the #3461 motor and provide both front and rear mounting support for your vehicle.
• What makes 6061-T6 aluminium the right choice for RC motor mounts? — 6061-T6 is the aerospace and automotive industry standard for precision components because it offers exceptional strength combined with light weight, excellent machinability for tight tolerances, and natural corrosion resistance. For RC applications, this means your motor mounts will remain true and secure through thousands of driving cycles without warping or failing.
• Why are the screws pre-treated with threadlock? — Threadlock is a chemical compound that prevents fasteners from vibrating loose over time, which is critical for motor mounts that experience constant vibration during engine operation. This significantly extends the service life of your mounting system and reduces the risk of catastrophic failure due to fastener separation during driving.
• Do I need any additional tools or parts to install these motor mounts? — You will need basic RC maintenance tools including metric hex keys or screwdrivers to remove and reinstall your motor, but all fasteners are included in the kit. No additional screws or tools are required for a standard installation on your ready to run RC Maxx.
• Can I use these motor mounts as a direct replacement for worn or damaged original mounts? — Yes, these are genuine Traxxas OEM-specification parts that are designed as direct replacements for original motor mounts, offering improved anodised durability over time. They install identically to original equipment with no modification required.
• What is the difference between the CCS and BCS fasteners included in this kit? — CCS refers to cap head socket screws and BCS refers to button head cap screws. The different sizes and head styles allow optimal fastening at different mounting points on your motor cradle, ensuring secure mounting without interference or obstruction of moving components.
