The RPM Front Skid Plate for the Traxxas Maxx is built to take abuse where the stock skid plate falls short!
One of the biggest issues Maxx owners reported was exposed mounting screws. On the stock skid plate, hard impacts and grinding abrasion can damage the screws, which can also lead to damaged bulkheads. Damaged bulkheads turns a simple scrape into an expensive, time-consuming repair. RPM solved that problem by redesigning the skid rib layout to isolate and protect the mounting screws from direct contact. Instead of the screws taking the hit, our beefy skid ribs absorb the punishment while providing long-lasting wear surfaces for maximum durability.
We didn’t stop there.
The RPM Front Skid Plate also adds a third skid rib, compared to the stock two-rib design. That extra rib means even greater abrasion resistance, improved strength and longer life under extreme driving conditions. Whether you’re launching big air, bashing hard or grinding across rough terrain, this skid plate is ready for the punishment.
Pair it with our Rear Skid Plate (RPM72222) for the ultimate Maxx underbody protection package!
Like all RPM products, our skid plates are proudly made in the USA and backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Tougher design. Smarter protection. Built RPM strong.
Tech Notes: The RPM Front Skid Plate for the Traxxas Maxx replaces stock Traxxas RPM8944 (front skid plate only).
We want to make sure your delivery goes smoothly, so here are some important details about our service:
- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.
- Depending on what you choose at checkout, your order will usually be delivered either the next working day or within 2 working days. For next day delivery please place your order before 2:00pm. Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
