Pro-Line also selected M2 race rubber and created a special tire design that achieves reduced tire expansion.
Ordinary treaded tires can catch and cause the truck to flip. Now check out the smooth sidewalls that will glide much easier over the surface for controllable slides and burnouts. What does this mean? An incredible amount of traction. You will notice that it is nearly a complete racing slick that allows for the maximum amount of rubber to be in contact with as much asphalt and/or concrete as possible. The Prime 2.8” was purpose-made for high-speed fun. One of the culprits that can cause instability are the tires so we figured to address this issue by utilizing a complete set of the Pro-Line Prime 2.8” Mounted Street Tires. Stability becomes an issue when driving an off-road truck at high speed on pavement. Now when you are performing those super high speed runs, you have some added insurance that your truck won’t become totally trashed if you have a bad wreck.
And added benefit is that Pro-Line sells this body Pre-Cut to make it much easier to get it installed onto the Rustler. All of the Bash Armor bodies come molded in solid white and include a nice set of detail stickers to help bring the body to life. The body is made of Pro-Line’s Bash Armor material which is twice as thick as your regular polycarbonate body and is also ultra-flexible to help keep it from cracking or shattering. For this reasoning, it made perfect sense to select the Pro-Line Pre-Cut Brute Bash Armor body. Flipping the truck onto its roof when launching off the line and high-speed cartwheels and tumbles are common occurrences. If you have ever driven a high-power, high-speed RC truck on pavement, then you know they are quite a handful to keep in control. Pre-Cut Brute Bash Armor White Body-#3518-15 Below are the two Pro-Line products we would use on this build. With all this speed on tap, the High-Speed Street Machine build was born. You can squeeze more speed out of this truck by simply changing the pinion and spur gear while using a 3S LiPo pack thus hitting highway speeds of 65+mph. The Traxxas Rustler 4×4 VXL is a very fast truck right out of the box with speeds in the 40mph range when using a 3S LiPo battery pack. Notice that the height of the posts are adjustable to suit different bodies. (NOTE: Only the Pro-Line Pre-Cut 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Clear Body was made to work with the stock Traxxas cage and body mounting system and does not need this accessory.) Just screw down the included setscrew into the body mount, place the O-ring over the setscrew, mount the body as you normally would and hold it in place with the Secure-Loc Caps. As for body clips…you won’t need them with this kit because it uses Pro-Lines’s innovative screw-on body mounting system using Secure-Loc Caps. This body mount kit also gives you the flexibility to use many different types of aftermarket bodies because the height of the posts are adjustable. So Pro-Line came to the rescue and produced this Extended Front and Rear Body Mount Kit that includes body mounts that bolt onto the front and rear shock towers. The reason being is that Traxxas gave the Rustler 4×4 its clipless body mounting system and this method does not use any body posts to secure the body onto the chassis. Without this body mounting kit, most aftermarket bodies would be a nightmare to mount on the Rustler 4×4 chassis. Extended Front and Rear Body Mount Kit for Rustler 4×4-#6362-00Īn essential Pro-Line accessory that is needed for two of the builds mentioned in this article is the Extended Front and Rear Body Mount Kit for the Rustler 4×4 (#6362-00).
