The Traxxas X-Maxx revolutionized the giant-scale RC industry not just with its size, but with its innovative "clipless" body mounting system. Instead of using tiny, frustrating body pins that rip through Lexan during a crash, the X-Maxx utilizes a heavy-duty internal latching mechanism.
Because the X-Maxx is a 20+ pound, 50+ MPH behemoth, landing upside down puts an immense amount of kinetic energy directly onto the roof. These mounts are engineered from high-impact composite plastic to absorb that shock, but they act as a deliberate fail-point to protect the more expensive shock towers and bulkheads. As a result, this is one of the most frequently replaced maintenance parts for aggressive X-Maxx bashers.
