Key Features

• Perfect Fitment for Rustler and Rustler VXL — This body is specifically designed to fit both the standard Rustler and the high-performance Rustler VXL brushless models, making it an incredibly versatile choice that works with multiple platforms in the Traxxas lineup.
• Pre-Installed Front and Rear Body Mounts — The front and rear body mounts come factory-assembled and ready to use, allowing for tool-free clipless mounting directly onto your chassis, which means you can swap this body on in seconds without any fasteners or complex installation procedures.
• Professional ProGraphix Paint Finish — The body features Traxxas's premium ProGraphix paint system, which delivers a deep, vibrant blue colour that resists fading and maintains its brilliant appearance even after extended outdoor use and UV exposure.
• Factory-Applied Decals — Pre-applied Traxxas graphics and decals come already positioned and secured on the body, eliminating the need for you to source, align, and apply decals yourself, which saves time and ensures professional-quality results.
• Durable Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from tough polycarbonate material that's specifically engineered to absorb impacts and resist cracking during aggressive bashing and racing, providing genuine protection for your chassis whilst maintaining its shape and appearance.
• Ready-to-Mount Design — Simply unbox the body and mount it onto your Rustler or Rustler VXL chassis – no painting, decalling, trimming, or preparation required, making this an ideal solution for quick replacements or aesthetic upgrades.

Technical Performance

This Traxxas Rustler body represents genuine factory engineering optimised for the 1/10 scale Rustler platform. The polycarbonate material used in its construction has been specifically selected for its balance of lightweight performance, impact absorption, and durability – critical factors when you're running an RC stadium truck that's designed for high-speed bashing and competitive racing. The body's aerodynamic design, developed by Traxxas engineers, helps manage airflow at speed whilst maintaining visual appeal. The ProGraphix paint system is formulated to adhere permanently to polycarbonate, resisting the UV degradation and colour fading that can plague lower-quality paint finishes on RC bodies. The pre-applied factory decals are position-perfect and use commercial-grade adhesive that doesn't peel or lift during aggressive driving sessions. The front and rear body mounts are engineered to work seamlessly with both the Rustler's standard chassis and the Rustler VXL's brushless-specific geometry, ensuring a perfect fit regardless of which version of these incredibly popular RC trucks you're running. Whether your Rustler is powered by a brushed motor or the more modern brushless Rustler VXL's high-performance brushless system, this body shell delivers the same precision fitment and protection. The clipless mounting system means you can remove and refit this body repeatedly without any degradation in fitment quality – a massive advantage when you want to swap between different body colours or styles for different occasions or personal preference.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will this Rustler body fit my Rustler VXL? — Yes, absolutely. This body is specifically designed to fit both the standard Rustler and the Rustler VXL brushless model, making it a versatile upgrade option if you've upgraded to the more powerful brushless variant.
• Do I need to paint or decal this body myself? — No. This body comes with professional ProGraphix paint already applied and factory decals already positioned and secured. You simply mount it on your chassis straight out of the box.
• How do the body mounts work? — The front and rear body mounts are pre-installed on this body shell and use a clipless mounting system, meaning you simply clip the body onto your chassis with no tools or fasteners required. You can remove and refit it repeatedly without any loss of fitment quality.
• What colour options are available? — This particular body comes in vibrant blue. Traxxas manufactures Rustler bodies in multiple colour options, so if you prefer a different shade, alternative colours may be available from RC Model Shop or your local Traxxas dealer.
• How durable is the polycarbonate material? — Traxxas polycarbonate bodies are specifically engineered for durability and impact resistance. Whilst they're tougher than lexan or painted plastic, they can still be damaged by extreme impacts or crashes – but they're designed to absorb impacts without cracking and maintain their shape through extended bashing sessions.
• Is this body waterproof? — The body shell itself is water-resistant in normal conditions, but the clipless mounting system means water can access the chassis. If you're planning extended water bashing, ensure your chassis electronics are properly waterproofed separately.
• What is the difference between this body and aftermarket alternatives? — As an official Traxxas factory body, this shell offers guaranteed fitment and quality control. It's engineered specifically for the Rustler platform and uses the same materials and paint systems as Traxxas factory models, ensuring professional appearance and durability.
• Can I use this body on other Traxxas models? — This body is specifically engineered for the Rustler and Rustler VXL. Whilst Traxxas makes other stadium truck bodies for the Stampede and other models, fitment on non-Rustler platforms is not guaranteed.
