Overview
The RC4WD TIGHTFIT TRUCK TOPPER FOR THE MOJAVE & HILUX BODIES (Z-B0047) is an exceptional scale accessory designed for RC enthusiasts who demand authentic detail and practical functionality. This injection-moulded hard-body canopy is engineered to add realistic scale detail to your RC truck whilst providing practical bed coverage for your scale hauling adventures. Whether you're a serious RC crawler enthusiast, a scale truck builder, or someone discovering the world of detailed RC customisation for the first time, this truck topper represents a significant upgrade to your vehicle's authenticity and visual appeal.
Built with multiple injection-moulded plastic parts, this topper brings ultimate realism to your RC4WD Trail Finder 2 or compatible Tamiya Hilux body.

The RC4WD Tightfit Topper has been tested and approved by the Recon G6, ensuring it meets exacting standards for quality and compatibility. It comes complete with all necessary self-tapping hardware in black finish, assembly instructions, and everything needed to install it on your compatible chassis. This is the ideal accessory for RC truck builders looking to add practical protection and authentic scale detail simultaneously.

- Complete Assembly Manual Included — Detailed assembly instructions are provided with the topper, guiding you through the straightforward installation process with clear diagrams and step-by-step directions.

Technical Performance
The RC4WD Tightfit Truck Topper represents thoughtful engineering focused on compatibility and ease of installation. Measuring 8.56 inches (217.5mm) in length, 6.49 inches (165mm) in width, and 2.56 inches (65mm) in height, the topper is precisely proportioned to fit RC4WD's Trail Finder 2 chassis with Mojave II body set and the Tamiya Hilux body, ensuring a perfect fit without modification. With a weight of just 4.95 ounces (140 grams), the topper adds minimal mass to your RC truck, preserving suspension performance and handling characteristics. The injection-moulded plastic construction provides excellent durability whilst keeping weight low—critical for maintaining the precise weight distribution and balance that scale truck builders demand. The multi-part design allows for detailed surface variations and authentic styling lines that single-piece alternatives cannot achieve. Assembly requires only a Phillips driver with a +2.5 tip, and all hardware is included, making installation a straightforward process suitable for builders of any experience level.

Assembly requires only a Phillips driver and the included manual guides you through every step. It's not a complex mechanical component like suspension upgrades; it's straightforward to install and immediately transforms the appearance of your truck.
- Will this topper fit my RC truck? — This topper is specifically designed for the RC4WD Trail Finder 2 with Mojave II body and the Tamiya Hilux body. It will not fit other truck bodies or chassis without modification. Check that you own one of these compatible models before purchasing.
- Does paint come with the topper? — No, paint is not included. The topper arrives in unpainted, injection-moulded plastic ready for your custom paint application. You'll need to source suitable plastic-compatible paint separately to achieve your desired colour scheme. Many RC enthusiasts use automotive spray paints designed for plastics.
- How long does assembly take? — Assembly is straightforward and typically takes 15-30 minutes depending on your experience level. All screws are pre-assembled into hardware, and the manual provides clear step-by-step guidance. No soldering, electrical work, or complex tools are required.

- Is this topper waterproof? — The injection-moulded plastic construction is water-resistant and suitable for typical RC outdoor use in the UK's varied weather conditions. However, this is not a hermetically sealed container, so electronics stored inside should still be protected appropriately.

It will also fit the standalone Mojave II Body Set (Z-B0084) and the complete Trail Finder 2 Truck Kit with Mojave II Body (Z-K0049).
