Technical Performance
The RC4WD Mojave Body Lift Kit represents the pinnacle of engineering quality expected from premium RC4WD components. Crafted from billet aluminium and finished with a hard black anodise coating, this kit provides exceptional rigidity whilst maintaining a featherweight profile that won't compromise your Trail Finder 2 LWB's performance characteristics. The precision CNC machining ensures that every mounting point aligns perfectly with your chassis, eliminating the fitment issues commonly associated with less carefully engineered alternatives. At 35.0 grams, the complete kit adds minimal rotating and suspended mass, which is crucial for maintaining the precise weight distribution and balance that serious RC crawler builders require. The inclusion of matched hardware—both M3 x 6mm button head cap screws and M3 x 8mm flat head socket cap screws—ensures that every connection point is secure and visually consistent. Whether you're campaigning your Trail Finder 2 LWB in competitive events or enjoying recreational crawling sessions across challenging terrain, this body lift kit delivers the durability and reliability expected from a genuine RC4WD component.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will the Mojave Body Lift Kit fit my Trail Finder 2 standard wheelbase model? — No, this kit is specifically engineered for the Trail Finder 2 LWB (long wheelbase) platform. The dimensions and mounting points are calculated exclusively for the longer chassis. If you own a standard wheelbase Trail Finder 2, you'll need a different body lift solution designed for your specific model.
- What is the purpose of a body lift kit on an RC crawler? — A body lift kit raises the main chassis body upward relative to the frame, creating the visual appearance of increased ground clearance whilst maintaining your original suspension geometry. This modification is particularly popular with scale crawler enthusiasts because it replicates the stance of full-size vehicles equipped with lifted suspension systems, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and the authentic scale appearance of your build.
- Do I need any additional tools or parts to install this kit? — The kit includes all necessary fasteners and mounting brackets for installation. You'll need basic RC model tools such as appropriate hex drivers and screwdrivers to attach the brackets to your chassis and body. No additional parts are required, making this a complete solution for Trail Finder 2 LWB owners.
- Will this body lift kit affect the performance or handling of my Trail Finder 2 LWB? — Because the kit weighs only 35.0 grams and simply repositions your body relative to the chassis without altering suspension components, it has minimal impact on vehicle performance. Your wheelbase, suspension geometry, and weight distribution remain unchanged, preserving the handling characteristics your crawler was designed with.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, the Mojave Body Lift Kit is suitable for builders of all experience levels. The installation process is straightforward, involving basic fastening of brackets and mounts using standard RC tools. Beginners will appreciate the included hardware and the fact that this upgrade doesn't require chassis modifications or suspension adjustments.
- What makes RC4WD components different from other manufacturers? — RC4WD is recognised throughout the RC hobby community for exceptional engineering quality, precision CNC manufacturing, and attention to detail in every component. Their use of premium materials like billet aluminium and hard-coat anodising sets them apart, and this Mojave Body Lift Kit exemplifies their commitment to producing components that satisfy both competitive builders and enthusiast collectors.
- Can replacement hardware be sourced if I lose fasteners? — Yes, RC Model Shop can supply replacement hardware should you need additional fasteners. The specific parts included are Steel Button Head Cap Screws M3 x 6mm (Z-S0651) and Steel Flat Head Socket Cap Screws M3 x 8mm (Z-S0649), which are standard RC4WD components available as spare parts.
