Key Features
- Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from high-impact polycarbonate material, which provides excellent durability and impact resistance during aggressive driving, crashes and bashings. This material is significantly more resilient than painted plastic and will withstand the rigours of off-road RC driving in the UK climate.
- ProGraphix Paint Finish — This replacement body features Traxxas's renowned ProGraphix paint system, which delivers a deep, vibrant green colour with professional-grade coverage and durability. The paint resists fading from UV exposure and maintains its finish through countless hours of outdoor driving and storage.
- Pre-Applied Decals — The body arrives with all graphics and decals already applied and professionally finished, eliminating the tedious task of decal application. This ensures a factory-perfect appearance with perfectly aligned graphics that enhance the aggressive styling of the X-Maxx.
- Fully Assembled and Ready to Mount — Unlike bare bodyshells that require significant preparation, this body comes completely assembled with all mounting hardware pre-installed. You can mount it to your X-Maxx chassis immediately without additional work or parts sourcing.
- Pre-Installed Body Mounts — The front and rear body mounts are already fitted to the bodyshell, allowing for quick and secure attachment to your X-Maxx chassis. These mounts ensure the body stays firmly in place during high-speed running and aggressive cornering.
- Roof Skid Plate — Integrated into the body assembly is a protective roof skid plate that shields the top of the truck during rollovers and impacts. This component is essential for protecting your radio equipment and electronics from damage during bashings.
- Rear Body Support — The rear body support provides additional structural reinforcement and stability, preventing body flex during acceleration and deceleration. This maintains the body's shape and integrity over extended periods of use.
- Tailgate Protector — A specialised tailgate protector is included to guard the rear section of the body from damage during impacts and crashes. This protective component extends the lifespan of your bodyshell and maintains its appearance.
- Compatible with Multiple X-Maxx Models — This body is compatible with the entire X-Maxx lineup, including the X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S Monster Truck and X-Maxx Ultimate variants, offering versatility across the range.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Body X-Maxx green replacement bodyshell represents the pinnacle of RC monster truck body design and engineering. Constructed from premium polycarbonate, the body provides the perfect balance between durability, weight and aesthetics for the legendary X-Maxx platform. The material choice is critical — polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance compared to standard plastic, meaning your truck can handle aggressive driving, high-speed collisions and rough terrain without sustaining permanent damage to the bodyshell. The ProGraphix paint system applied at the factory ensures a finish that resists UV degradation, temperature extremes and the elements commonly encountered during UK outdoor RC driving. The pre-applied decals are integrated seamlessly into the paint finish, creating a cohesive design that appears to be a single unified paint job rather than graphics applied over base paint. At 1/7 scale, this body is sized to fit the massive X-Maxx chassis, which features brushless 8S LiPo power delivery and 4WD drivetrain engineering. The body's aerodynamic profile aids stability at the high speeds the X-Maxx is capable of achieving, whilst the integrated protective elements — roof skid plate, rear body support and tailgate protector — work together to defend your chassis and electronics during the inevitable bashings and crashes that come with aggressive RC driving. The pre-assembled construction with factory-installed body mounts means installation is straightforward, taking minutes rather than hours, allowing you to get your truck back on the track or field immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this a complete replacement body or a bare shell? — This is a fully assembled replacement body, not a bare shell. It comes pre-painted with decals already applied and all mounting hardware and protective components pre-installed. You simply bolt it onto your X-Maxx chassis and you're ready to drive.
- What X-Maxx models is this body compatible with? — This body (part number TRX7867-GRN) is compatible with all Traxxas X-Maxx models, including the X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S Monster Truck in red, green, orange and blue variants, as well as the X-Maxx Ultimate series. Always verify compatibility with your specific X-Maxx model before purchase.
- How long does the ProGraphix paint last? — The ProGraphix paint system is designed for durability and UV resistance, maintaining its vibrant green colour and finish through extended outdoor use. However, the paint can be scratched or scuffed during crashes and bashings — this is normal wear and part of the fun of RC driving. Minor scratches can be touched up, or the body can be repainted if desired.
- Do I need any special tools to install this body? — Installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools — typically just a Phillips head screwdriver to secure the body to the pre-installed mounts. No drilling, cutting or modification is necessary as the body comes ready to fit.
- What should I do if the body gets cracked or damaged? — Polycarbonate bodies are highly impact-resistant but can crack under extreme force or impacts. Minor cracks may be repairable with plastic cement or epoxy, but significant damage may require replacement. This is a consumable part for aggressive RC enthusiasts, so purchasing a spare body is a common practice.
- Is this body waterproof? — The polycarbonate shell itself is waterproof, but your X-Maxx's electronics must remain protected. The body provides some protection from splashes and light rain, but you should avoid submersing the truck or driving through deep water, as water can damage the electronics, motor and ESC inside the chassis.
- Can I paint over the existing ProGraphix finish? — Yes, the body can be repainted if you wish to change the colour or customise the design. Most RC enthusiasts use polycarbonate-specific paints and techniques to repaint bodies. You may wish to research proper polycarbonate painting methods before attempting this yourself.
- How does the green colour compare to other Traxxas colours? — The green finish is a vibrant, eye-catching colour that stands out on the track or field. Traxxas offers X-Maxx bodies in multiple colours including blue and orange, allowing you to choose the colour that best suits your preference. The green has excellent visibility for tracking your truck during driving sessions.
