Technical Performance
The ARRMA QUAKE Painted Decaled Trimmed Body Set utilises premium polycarbonate construction, the preferred material for professional-grade RC bodyshells due to its combination of durability, flexibility and weight efficiency. The 1/10 scale proportions ensure the body delivers an impressive visual presence whilst maintaining the agility and responsiveness expected of modern electric RC monster trucks. The pre-painted purple finish has been applied to factory specifications, providing a consistent colour match and professional appearance throughout.

The pre-drilled mounting points are precision-engineered to align perfectly with the QUAKE 223S chassis, guaranteeing secure fitment and proper panel alignment. The body's aerodynamic styling combines aesthetic appeal with functional design, allowing optimal airflow around your running gear whilst maintaining the aggressive stance that characterises the QUAKE range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this body compatible with all QUAKE models? — Yes, this body is compatible with the ARRMA QUAKE 223S DSC 2WD RTR brushless monster truck in red (C-ARA3537T1), purple (C-ARA3537T3) and green (C-ARA3537T2) variants. It is designed as a direct replacement for the factory-supplied bodyshell on these models.
- Do I need to paint or prepare this body myself? — No, this body arrives completely pre-painted in purple and pre-decaled with ARRMA graphics. You simply need to trim any remaining plastic and drill mounting holes if required, then install it directly onto your chassis—making it far quicker and easier than working with an unpainted clear body.
- What makes a pre-decaled body better than applying my own decals? — Factory-applied vinyl decals are professionally aligned and adhered using industrial equipment, ensuring crisp graphics, proper registration and durability. The ARRMA vinyl stickers used here add authentic branding and visual interest without requiring artistic skill or specialised decal application tools, and they're significantly less prone to misalignment or peeling when applied professionally.
- Can I use this body on other RC trucks? — No, this body is specifically engineered for the ARRMA QUAKE 223S DSC 2WD RTR brushless monster truck platform and is not compatible with other scales, drive systems or manufacturers' chassis designs. The mounting holes, dimensions and fitment are precise to the QUAKE platform only.
- What colour options are available? — The QUAKE Painted Decaled Trimmed Body Set is available in multiple colours including red, purple and green, allowing you to match your truck's livery or create a striking two-tone appearance by swapping between body sets.
- Why choose a pre-painted body instead of a clear body? — A pre-painted body eliminates the need for masking, painting and curing, saves considerable preparation time, guarantees a professional finish that matches factory standards, and allows you to start driving immediately. This makes painted bodies ideal for drivers who want to get on the track quickly rather than spending hours on preparation and finishing work.
- Are window masks included in this set? — No, window masks are not included with this body set. This gives you flexibility to source clear or tinted masks based on your personal preferences for visibility, appearance and weather protection.
