Clipless Convenience - TRX-4 Ford F-150's heavy-duty clipless body mounts integrate into its rugged inner fenders to form a vise-like grip. When it's time to release the body, simply reach under the fender and pull the tabs. It's that easy.
High Steering and Drag Links - The steering link and drag link attach high on the portal axles, raising them away from possible damage. This allows TRX-4 to attack obstacles head on, reducing the risk of hitting the steering linkage on rocks.
High Ground Clearance - Portal axles help raise the center ground clearance to an unparalleled 3.14 inches (80mm), while raised suspension links and driveshafts clear the rocks underneath. Superior capability equals more fun no matter where your adventure takes you.
45-Degree Steering Angle - The superior 45⁰ steering angle negotiates around even the tightest bends with ease. This helps avoid awkward reversing maneuvers in tight spaces.
Heavy-Duty Steel Frame Rails - A thick 1.5mm steel ladder frame with molded cross members provides exceptional torsional rigidity to resist even the worst chassis twisting articulation. This extremely rigid backbone lets the suspension do the work it was designed to do. You'll feel the difference on trails where the elimination of chassis flex allows for precise wheel placement when navigating technical terrain.
Molded Inner Fenders and Floor Pans - Tough inner fenders mount directly to the frame and shock towers, providing a substantial look and feel to TRX-4 Ford F-150. Molded floor pans integrate into the fenders to keep rocks, mud, and debris out of the chassis.
Portal Axles - Portal axles lift the differential pumpkin to provide incredible ground clearance. This radical design also improves axle geometry and reduces strain on the driveshafts. Steel gears ensure trouble-free performance, no matter how technical the climb.
Canyon Trail Tires - TRX-4 Ford F-150's 1.9" chrome wheels come pre-glued and mounted to aggressive S1-compound Canyon Trail Tires. the tire's deep tread blocks flex for maximum traction on the rocks. The trail-runed foam inserts provide realistic sidewall flex for authentic climbing action.
Aluminum Scale Shocks - Oil-filled coil-over GTS shocks were created exclusively for the TRX-4 chassis to smooth out even the roughest trails. These silver-anodized aluminum shocks deliver silky-smooth damping and feature threaded bodies for easy ride height adjustment. the convincing scale realism looks great and they perform even better with an O-ring cap seal and dual X-ring shaft seals.
Dual Battery Tray - TRX-4's main battery tray accommodates a full-length 5000mAh 3-cell LiPo or 7600mAh 2-cell LiPo for extended run times or smaller 1/16 scale Traxxas batteries for reduced weight. A hinged battery strap provides quick and secure battery mounting without pins to lose in the field. The innovative strap flips over to adjust for different height batteries.
Heavy-Duty Steel Links - Thick 5mm diameter steel links feature tough, fully captured heavy-duty rod ends with steel hollow balls for exceptional strength and durability. This one rig that won't strand you on the trail with a broken suspension link.
Hardened Steel U-Joints - Hardened steel U-joints on the front and rear driveshafts provide smooth, reliable power delivery for non-stop fun.
Twin Friction Plate Slipper Clutch - A twin friction plate slipper clutch provides some additional protection from motor stalls in extreme crawling conditions.
Front Motor Design - TRX-4's large 550 sized brushed 21-turn Titan motor provides smooth reliable power and loads of torque to climb the toughest obstacles. the front mounted orientation moves the weight bias forward to get you up and over obstacles with improved traction.
Raised Center Driveshafts and Suspension Links - TRX-4's portal axles raise the driveshafts higher to improve axle geometry and reduce driveshaft angles. Higher driveshafts and suspension links pass over obstacles to avoid high-centering your truck and reduce overall grinding wear.
Waterproof Metal-Gear Servo - A full-metal gear digital servo supplies the durability and steering authority needed to confidently and reliably power through tough obstacles.
