RPM

Ready-to-Run vehicles are bringing in a whole new field of individuals into our fine hobby. Most of these RTR vehicles will never see a racetrack. Instead, these drivers are the infamous back-yard bashers we hear about all of the time. They are bouncing their trucks off of trees, curbs, houses, etc. These are the guys that need maximum RPM protection and inspired us to build our wide front bumper for the Associated GT. With a full 6” of width and 1-1/2” of forward extension, our newest basher-proof bumpers will provide that added protection that no one else can offer. Our bumpers are molded in either blue or black and are molded from our guaranteed bulletproof blend of nylons that can take a beating and keep on rolling! For the race-oriented individual, we will still be offering our standard mini front bumpers for the GT (#70711, #70722, #70725, & #70727) that add extra protection over stock bumpers, yet extremely lightweight - perfect for racing.

Tech Note: This bumper does not work on the GT2. Please see this bumper for the GT2 or this bumper for a wide version.

70332 Assoc. GT, T2 & 10T Wide Front Bumper - Black
70335 Assoc. GT, T2 & 10T Wide Front Bumper - Blue

There is very little that can be as frustrating on an R/C vehicle as slop in the suspension system. In the case of the 1/16th scale mini E-Revo and mini Slash, there is absolutely no slop adjustment for the suspension pivot balls. Once the axle carriers begin to wear at those balls, the camber, toe and caster angles don’t stay true, causing the vehicle to wander, making it very difficult to control.

That is where RPM steps in. Our new 1/16th scale mini E-Revo and mini Slash Axle Carriers have a unique pivot ball retention system that locks the pivot ball in place, yet still allows for adjustment due to wear. Our system is based on a cap design, held in place with a pair of small screws. Simply slip the caps in place, tighten the flathead screws until the free play of the pivot ball is eliminated and you’re ready to go!

RPM Axle Carriers have been completely redesigned for added durability and crash-survivability. RPM engineers found that the stock pivot ball opening could be reduced in size to help support the pivot ball better, meaning a significantly lower chance of pulling the ball through the hole. The redesigned overall shape and superior materials that go into our version make them the best alternative at the lowest price available! And to top it off, RPM axle carriers are marginally lighter than the stock versions!

RPM Axle Carriers for the 1/16th scale Traxxas mini E-Revo and mini Slash are molded in three color options - black, blue and red, perfectly matching our already well-known and respected set of mini E-Revo A-arms. Designed, manufactured and molded right here in our facility in sunny Southern California! At RPM, we bring pride to the expression “Made in the USA”!

Traxxas Slash 4x4 Rear Bumper - Chrome

The 4x4 version of the Slash is another awesome creation from the minds at Traxxas but with a little help from RPM, we’ve made it even better! Our new rear bumper is modeled after full-sized short course and desert racing trucks for authentic scale realism, utilizing the same great looking rear bumper as that found on the 2wd version of the RPM rear bumper and making the most of an all-new bumper mount design specifically for the 4x4. This new mounting system has the perfect blend of rigidity and flexibility to absorb those nasty rear collisions without transferring huge amounts of impact energy into the more fragile components of the chassis. Additionally, with its twin hinge point mounting system, rear A-arm maintenance is a snap. Simply remove the two bottom-mounted flathead screws and the bumper swivels out of the way for easy access to the rear A-arms! It even allows the rear sway bar to stay in place!

We incorporated a thicker skid plate design that does a fantastic job of protecting the rear end and lower mounting screws from harsh conditions such as gravel and asphalt impacts. The RPM lower mount / skid plate is over 35% thicker than the stock version!

What more could we do to make these things incredibly realistic? How about mounting points for mud flaps and RPM tail light kits already widely available? That’s right; these bumpers come stock with mounting positions for RPM mud flaps (RPM #81012 available separately) and RPM Tail Light Kits (RPM #81030 also available separately). If you haven’t seen a Slash with a full set of LED’s running at night, you’re missing out!

RPM rear bumpers for the Traxxas Slash 4x4 are available in three popular color options - black, blue and chrome on gray. RPM rear bumpers are sold with all necessary hardware and complete mounting instructions.

Front Bumper & Skid Plate for the HPI Baja 5B

A lack of front-end protection of any R/C vehicle eventually results in hours of down time, replacing expensive chassis components from front-end impacts. The stock set-up on the HPI Baja 5B has virtually no protection up front since the bumper is tucked so far into the front of the vehicle. RPM steps in with some serious protection in the form of an all-new bumper specifically designed for this beast!

Our front bumper is a two-piece design, utilizing a skid plate and separate bumper that can be removed for racing. Each piece has specific design elements incorporated to dramatically improve the strength and durability of the HPI Baja 5B.The RPM skid plate is attached to the chassis with four 5mm screws, not two like the stock version, effectively cutting transferred impact energy in half, divided equally among those four screws. Our skid plate also has huge skid rails all along its lower section and is a major part of the impact-absorption system. It extends up, out and away from the chassis, creating a large curved section that acts as a buffer zone that rapidly dissipates impact energy by compressing during a hit, slowing and absorbing that energy without transferring it into the more fragile components of the vehicle. Once the impact force dissipates, the memory characteristics of our trademark blend of RPM nylons will return the bumper to its original position.

The bumper itself is over 6-1/2” wide and is designed to prevent smaller objects such as fence and mailbox poles from slipping in-between the skid plate and the tires. Its added width tops off a perfectly balanced design that is strong, extremely durable and built to last!

When we designed our Front Shock Tower for the SC10 2wd, SC10GT, T4, T4.2RS & GT2, we had several goals in mind: Improve the strength and durability, improve crash survivability and help reduce damage to other vital components. The results are everything we had hoped they’d be! The T-shaped structure of our front shock tower provides some serious strength and rigidity while the top-secret blend of materials we use provides unmatched durability.

Although the SC10 2wd, SC10GT, T4, T4.2RS & GT2 each have different requirements of the front shock tower; the RPM version integrates all those needs for unmatched support of the shocks on all three trucks while the redesigned front bumper mount base for the SC10 2wd & SC10GT has been strengthened to sustain repeated impacts from the stock front bumper. All this performance and durability is wrapped up in a part that weighs slightly less than the stock piece it replaces!
RPM Front Shock Towers are stock replacement parts for the Associated SC10 2wd, SC10GT, T4, T4.1, T4.2RS & GT2.

Whether you’re out having fun bashing or in the middle of the A-main at a national event, nothing is more frustrating than breaking an A-arm. That’s where RPM steps in. RPM A-arms for the Associated SC8 & RC8B are designed to prevent that from ever happening again. These A-arms are tough as nails and designed to take some serious punishment! Every aspect of the design on these arms is there to either improve strength or durability. Additionally, we’ve cleared the A-arms in areas known to rub on the stock A-arms, allowing extra droop for more suspension travel over rough terrain or big jumps.

Exclusive features of RPM A-arms include: Molded-in shock mounts which means no more lost screws or extra weight from those screws on the arms (each RPM Rear A-arm is actually 3 grams lighter than stock, saving 6 grams of unsprung weight!). Elimination of the stock lower shock mount pin in favor of a new 5-40 screw, which eliminates .004” of slop in the pivot and improves suspension accuracy. Leading and trailing 30-degree edges help the vehicle to more easily transition up and over objects too tall for the suspension to clear and improve suspension aerodynamics.

RPM A-arms are molded in our trademark blend of bulletproof nylons and are factory-backed by our industry-leading breakage warranty. Molded in black and sold in pairs with one left and one right A-arm in each package.

RPM Rod Ends for Associated and Losi vehicles have been some our best selling RPM parts for over 2 decades! That same engineering, combined with RPM bulletproof materials, has gone into the creation of RPM Rod Ends for Traxxas 1/10th scale vehicles. These rod ends are tough! The area around the ball stud is thicker than the stock rod end while still allowing a full range of motion of the pivot ball.

Additionally, the shank has been redesigned with a pair of flats, making the rod end much easier to work with (versus the stock, round shank). RPM rod ends are sold in sets of twelve to complete most vehicle needs.

RPM Rod Ends cover a wide range of currently available Traxxas vehicles including all versions of the following: Slash 2wd, Slash 4x4, Summit, T-Maxx, E-Maxx, Revo, e-Revo, Slayer Pro 4x4, Stampede 4x4, Rustler VXL, Jato and Bandit VXL.

Tech Notes: RPM short rod ends replace Traxxas stock #5347 while RPM long rod ends replace Traxxas stock #5525. Both versions are sold without pivot balls. Stock Traxxas pivot balls are required for completion.

Rear A-arms for the Associated SC10 4x4
SC10 4x4 Rear A-armsFollowing the release of our front A-arms for the Associated SC10 4x4 (RPM #73962), we now have a set of rear A-arms to complement those fronts for complete SC10 4x4 protection!

Once again, strength and durability were primary design considerations for these rear A-arms. Similar to the fronts, hinge pin and cross-holes such as shock mounts and anti-sway bar holes have been beefed up for some serious muscle. The structure of the A-arms is also dramatically different than the stock design, which not only helps with the strength and sturdiness of the overall design, it also helps contribute to a stronger, less flexible design than the stock A-arms. All this extra strength and at a weight that is actually 2-1/2 grams per A-arm lighter than stock A-arms, for a total weight loss of 5 grams!

RPM rear A-arms for the SC10 4x4 are molded in black from our trademark blend of extremely durable materials and are backed by our limited lifetime warranty.

The most popular RPM wheel, the Revolver, is now available in a Short Course version (2.2” - 3.0”). RPM customers have been asking for these wheels for quite some time and we didn’t want to disappoint them. RPM Revolver Short Course wheels are built tough, like all RPM products, look incredible and have an all-new drive system that is built to withstand some serious power.

The RPM “Spline Drive” system is radically different than the standard hex drive. A hex is easy to machine and easy to manufacture, which is why it is so commonly used. However, splines are tougher and Chrome Revolver SC Wheel (Slash 2wd front)stronger, which is why they’re used in full-sized driveline components. All standard hex style adapters push out and up every time rotational force is applied to the adapter, which is a huge reason why so many hex-style adapters spin. RPM Spline Drives direct the rotational force of the axle in a near perpendicular direction, making the likelihood of a spun adapter virtually non-existent!

Additionally, our Spline Drive has almost twice the amount of drive surface area versus a standard 12mm hex adapter and over 2.5 times the thickness at the most critical drive point of the adapter, the point that, if Black Revolver SC Wheelit fails, a standard hex adapter will spin.

Even 17mm hex drives don’t stand up to the RPM Spline Drive system. While a 17mm hex has marginally more surface area (.0777 sq. in. vs. .0744 sq. in.), our system still has nearly twice the thickness at that critical drive point, preventing RPM Spline Drives from spinning, yet eliminating the need for a huge and heavy 17mm adapter.

RPM Revolver Short Course wheels are sold in pairs (spline drive adapters are included in each package), available in black or chrome and backed by our industry-leading breakage warranty for unsurpassed strength and durability. Tires are not included.

Even though the proportions are less on these smaller scale rockets, the engineering behind miniaturized parts needs to be significantly improved to retain a measure of durability and strength to handle the speeds they can attain. Once again, RPM has the answer. Our A-arms for this little beast solve the durability issue with some serious muscle and intuitive design changes.

Each RPM A-arm starts with beveled 30° leading and trailing edges and beefed up shock and anti-sway bar mounts. The Losi Mini 8ight Rear A-armsouter hinge pin support diameters have been beefed up to almost double the thickness of the stock A-arms while a more modest increase in size has been designed into the inner hinge pin support diameters as well.

Each RPM A-arm for the Losi Mini 8ight is molded in black out of our extremely tough blend of nylons and are backed by our industry-leading warranty against breakage. If speed is your thing, you need RPM armor on your ride!

RPM A-arms for the T-Maxx & E-Maxx are built to handle some serious abuse! We've redesigned these a-arms to compensate for the larger axle diameters of newer Maxx style trucks with axle clearance zones built right in, yet these clearance areas do not compromise the strength. These A-arms are lighter than ever before, yet still maintain all of the qualities that RPM customers have come to expect from RPM A-arms - rugged durability, unrivaled performance, strength comparable to or better than many alloy A-arms, yetBlack T-Maxx 2.5R & 3.3 A-arms are lighter than those same alloy parts and pricing unbeatable by any other aftermarket A-arm set existing. All this and we back our A-arms with the best breakage warranty in the R/C industry!

We mold these A-arms in four different color choices, including a dyeable version for the ultimate in customization options and are sold in packages of one upper and one lower A-arm.
Purple T-Maxx 2.5R & 3.3 A-armsTech Notes: FOUR packages of RPM A-arms will be needed to complete one truck (alternately, TWO packages may be used when combined with the RPM True-Track Rear A-arm Kit).
These A-arms are compatible with all previous versions of both the T-Maxx and the E-Maxx. However, T-Maxx 1.5 owners will need to upgrade to the longer T-Maxx 2.5 turnbuckles and axles.

Please see our FAQ page for commonly asked questions regarding our A-arms

RPM Dirty Danglers are a cool, funny and unique way to show off your pride in your vehicle. Everyone knows when someone says their vehicle “has balls” they mean power. Well, with a set of RPM Dirty Danglers mounted on your vehicle, when you tell someone your truck has balls, you’ll mean it - literally! RPM Dirty Danglers look like a set of real testicles. Are you laughing yet? Yes, they look like mini testicles and are designed to mount to the back of almost any vehicle with a zip tie, screw, wire or chain (mounting hardware not included). We even go so far as to offer them in different color choices. They are available in Saddle-Sore Pink, Burnout Black, Cocky Chrome, D.N.F. Blue, & Ballsy Brass!

RPM Dirty Danglers also make a great addition to a key chain for those that want to show off their balls all the time! Dirty Danglers are not sold with mounting hardware so a separate chain or split ring will be needed. Additionally, RPM Dirty Danglers can be made into earrings or a necklace charm for a great gag gift.

Let your pride hang low, real low, with a set of Dirty Danglers from RPM. Your male friends will laugh, your female friends will giggle, but you’ll be the one with balls enough to show them off!

Camber is one of the most critical adjustments on a monster truck. The stock camber angles on the LST is set at zero degrees and the A-arms do NOT allow adjustability. RPM upper A-arms for the LST incorporate a tough 303 series stainless steel camber rod to create an adjustable camber RPM A-arm. We’ve included the anti-sway bar mount in the stock location as well. The lower A-arm is beefed up to take some serious abuse while maintaining stock shock mounts. RPM is the only answer for rugged, rigid, durable, and adjustable performance that works.

RPM LST A-arms are only sold in sets, and include one upper A-arm assembly (consisting of both upper A-arm sections and the connecting 303 stainless steel camber rod) and one lower A-arm. These A-arms are available in either blue or black and are molded from our bulletproof blend of nylons for the ultimate in rigidity, strength and durability.

Tech Notes: LST2 & Muggy owners, these a-arms will fit your truck when used in conjunction with our #73240 A-arm Adapter Kit. Four packages of A-arms will be needed to complete one truck.

Long Shank Rod Ends
Losi vehicles need longer shank rod ends to accommodate shorter turnbuckles. With these rod ends, you may replace your stock Losi rod ends with our superior RPM rod ends! They maintain our close tolerances over the ball cup and have the same oversized hex as the #7337 but these also include a small recess at the top of the ball to allow steeper angles without binding! RPM rod ends fit all Associated, Losi, & HPI ball-studs.

RPM gear covers for the Associated SC10, B4 & T4 are built to the highest RPM standards of quality, fit, and finish. RPM SC10, T4 & B4 gear covers are completely sealed, preventing even the smallest particles from entering the gears. The spur area of our gear cover has been slimmed down for the wing on a B4 to fit over without interference. They also come with two 4-40 SHCS mounting screws that eliminate the stock button head screws. This means easier access to the pinion & spur gears since the gear cover can be removed using a ball driver - no removing the tire to get to those tiny button head screws! Our gear covers also come with our oversized, soft plug for quick and easy access to the slipper adjustment nut for instant trackside adjustments. RPM SC10, B4 & T4 Gear Covers are built from our trademark blend of bulletproof nylons and carry our lifetime warranty against breakage. They are available in either blue or black to suite any individual’s taste.

Tech Notes: Not compatible with the VTS clutch system. Check your owner's manual to see if you have the VTS clutch before installing this gear cover. For VTS clutch systems, please see RPM #70262 / #70265.

RPM bumpers are known for their strength and durability. Those same qualities are integrated into our newest bumpers for the T-Maxx & E-Maxx. These bumpers are not only the strongest bumpers made, they are extremely lightweight and have a scale, realistic appearance. Our front bumper adds extra protection with a lower, tubular bar extending down to help absorb impacts that would have been taken by the front skid plate alone. We’ve also strengthened the areas around the screw holes, eliminating a potential weak point. Our rear bumpers have the scale appearance of a step bumper found on most full-sized trucks. Our rear bumper weighs the same as a stock bumper, yet is stronger, and supports the rear skid plate for added rear-end protection. In addition, we’ve designed a recessed area where you, with a little creativity, can add in a customized, scale license plate or a ball hitch! All of our bumpers are offered in multiple color choices and are guaranteed not to break! All colored bumpers have the color molded in, not dyed, for long lasting color, even when scratched. Our "Chrome" finish bumpers are coated over our metallic silver bumper to help prevent nicks and scratches from showing through.

Don't forget to check out our FAQ page here to see what a little Rit dye can do to enhance the look of your silver or chrome bumpers.

Tech Notes: The RPM Rear Bumper may not work in conjunction with stock Traxxas wheelie bars.

Revo Tubular Front and Rear Bumpers
(fits all versions of the Traxxas Revo)
RPM provides the added protection the Revo needs with unbelievable strength and durability in our tubular front and rear bumpers. RPM bumpers for the Traxxas Revo are made from our bulletproof blend of nylons. RPM nylons are the best material for protecting your Revo since our materials are lightweight, inexpensive, and tougher than anything else available! We’ve reengineered the front and rear bumpers to improve strength, especially around the screw holes, which eliminates potential weak points, and we’ve designed a recessed flat where with a little creativity, anyone can add in a customized, scale license plate. Additionally, our rear bumper has a flat area perfect for adding a ball stud for a faux ball hitch (see our FAQ page of our website for more information). Our colors are molded into each bumper so scratches and nicks won’t cut through to a different color underneath. In addition, our chrome bumpers are molded over our metallic silver bumper so scratches won’t show as easily as a stock bumper (where black is the base color). RPM bumpers carry our lifetime warranty* against breakage and will hold up to the roughest of punishment.

Head Guard for Traxxas 2.5 & 2.5R Engine Heads
The RPM Head Guard was designed to withstand the toughest of rollover crashes and beg for more. Our head protector has an additional 0.100” or almost 1/8” of additional thickness on top to add extra skid and impact resistance to the fragile cooling fins of the stock Traxxas 2.5 & 2.5R heads. Additionally, our Head Guard has a positive locking system that absolutely will not allow the Head Guard to pull itself free during a crash.

The RPM Head Guard is designed specifically for the Traxxas 2.5 & 2.5R stock engine head which is currently used in many Traxxas models including the Revo, Jato, T-Maxx, S-Maxx, SportMaxx, Nitro 4-Tec 2.5, & Nitro Rustler 2.5. The RPM Head Guard comes with a full set of screws as well as complete installation instructions. They are available in Black, Blue, & Dyeable Silver and are molded in our trademark blend of bulletproof nylons for strength and durability unmatched by any other material on the market!

Tech Note: There are many manufacturers producing aftermarket heads that fit the Traxxas 2.5 & 2.5R engine but the RPM Head Guard has only been tested and guaranteed to fit stock Traxxas 2.5 & 2.5R heads.

Traxxas Slash Rear A-arms
RPM rear A-arms for the Traxxas Slash are designed specifically for the Slash - they are not multi-platform A-arms like the stock versions.


Our first design challenge was to beef up our version of the Slash rear A-arms to handle some serious abuse. The material around the inner and outer hinge pins has been increased by a whopping 64%! We then eliminated all of the unnecessary holes and shock mounts that would be needed on other vehicles but not on the Slash, which significantly reduced the weight of our A-arms while improving crash durability. Even after all of the increased muscle has been factored in, our A-arms still come in at over 10% lighter than the original arms! Our final design task was to improve the fit and finish and what we came up with will eliminate most of the slop in the rear suspension system! The Slash owner can tighten things up to near perfect out back simply by adding in a set of our #80382 Rear Bearing Carriers currently available. RPM Slash rear A-arms use stock suspension geometry and include stock rear toe angles.



RPM Slash rear A-arms are not only stronger and more durable than stock, they are also more rigid and less flexible too, making them the perfect addition to those race-level Slashes on the track. Additionally, the new geometry design leaves no place for dirt and rocks to get caught in the lower A-arm and reduces the chances of rocks and debris getting stuck between the axle and the arm.



RPM Slash rear A-arms are sold in pairs. They are molded in our nearly indestructible blend of nylons and are sold in either black our blue. These A-arms are backed by our limited lifetime warranty against breakage as well for confidence-inspiring durability and performance.



Tech Notes: Stock rear axle carriers have an upper and lower hinge pin hole. RPM Slash Rear A-arms only allow the use of the original, lower hole location to be used. The upper axle carrier hole (which would lower the ride height in the back too much) cannot be used. To lower the rear end of the truck, RPM recommends using the outer shock mount hole positions in the A-arm.

Jato Rear A-arms
RPM Rear A-arms for the Traxxas Jato feature everything you've come to expect from RPM products - durability, strength, light weight, and the best possible value. RPM rear Jato A-arms have been redesigned to fit in the stock locations with less end-play than stock A-arms at both the inner and outer hinge pins, yet still retain all stock geometry for near perfect fits every time! Combined with a set of RPM Front Jato A-arms, your racing confidence will skyrocket because you won't have to worry about breaking fragile, stock a-arms any longer. Check out the description of our Front Jato A-arms below for additional features also built into our rear A-arms.

Front Shock Tower
(fits the Traxxas Slash, Elec. & Nitro Stampede, Elec. Rustler & Bandit)

RPM shock towers for Traxxas 1/10th scale trucks are designed to add strength and support to the front-end suspension components of these great vehicles. Our shock towers maintain all stock geometry while adding much needed structural strength to this vital suspension component. Our design uses an I-beam structure that adds tremendous levels of strength and rigidity that is far superior to u-shaped or flat designs. Our front shock towers will not flex nearly as easily as the stock versions yet have enough give in them, which prevents breakage from hard impacts or crashes.

RPM shock towers are molded in black and are made from our well-reputed blend of materials. These shock towers are so strong; we back them with our extremely well known policy against breakage.

Roof-Mounted Light Bar Set
(fits most Short Course Bodies with a min. 6" of roof width)

Our Roof-Mounted Light Bar Set looks just like the roof light sets of current Baja 1000 trucks. It incorporates six of our light canisters (the same used in the front bumper light set of RPM #80982 & #80983). Each of the six canisters is capable of holding a high intensity, 3mm LED (not included) for the ultimate in nighttime off-road racing experiences. What’s best? These light sets will fit all current 1/10th and most 1/8th scale (although specifically designed for 1/10th scale) “Short Course”-style bodies! That’s right, they will fit the Traxxas Slash, Associated SC10, Losi Strike & HPI Blitz to name just a few.

The goal of our Roof-Mounted Light Set was to recreate a scale version of those light bars found in full-sized night racing while striving for some reasonable amount of crash-survivability. What we came up with is a light mount set that uses a unique hinge-based system that in the event of a roll-over, the light bar will collapse against the body to help reduce impact damage. The light set is designed to bolt to the front windshield of the truck (although with sufficient room, it can be mounted to the rear window as well), keeping the profile low and in the perfect position to light up the night! A pair of large backing plates are supplied that help protect the body where the screws hold the light bar in place.

We mold these light bar sets in black, chrome and blue to match or contrast any paint or color scheme.

Each kit comes complete with all necessary mounting hardware, light canisters, molded parts and instructions. The instructions also show how to easily create your own LED light set-up with a few basic electronics skills, some tools and a little patience.

Suggestions: If you don't want to build a set of LED lights yourself, please consider these options for drop-in light sets for the RPM Roof-Mounted Light Bar Set.

RC-Lights makes a pair of drop-in kits specifically for our Roof-Mounted Light Sets using the main battery pack for power. A stand alone kit for the roof lights can be found here. If you already have our front bumper light set and an RC-Lights front bumper light set, an add on kit can be found here. RC-Lights is offering $30.00 off any full LED lighting system to RPM customers. Simply mention the code 'RPM' at checkout.



RC4WD also makes a 10 light LED kit specifically for our light kits that also uses the main battery pack for power. LED's are removable if you prefer to run 4 or 6 LED's instead of all 10.

What's Included: 1 - Light Bar, 1 Canister Mounting Plate, 2 - Body Mounts, 2 - Backing Plates, 6 Light Canisters, 6 - Lenses, 6 - Light Guards, 1 Mounting Hole Drill Template, all necessary hardware and complete instructions for assembly.
Chrome light bars come with chrome light canisters. Both black and blue light bars come with black light canisters.

Tech Notes: LED lights are not included. The RPM Roof-Mounted Light Bar Set can fit any number of applications as long as there is at least 6” of roof width for the light bar body mounts to fit in place. Due to the scale appearance of this light bar set, we cannot properly strengthen all aspects of the lights. Therefore, some warranty restrictions may apply. See instructions for complete details.

Traxxas Slash Front Bumper & Skid Plate
They’re here! An all-new bumper design for the Traxxas Slash (the only molded bumper made in the USA)! Our two-piece design is simple, yet strong, effective and highly attractive. We made it a two-piece design to give the Slash owner the option of full front-end bash-proof and crash-proof protection with both the skid plate and bumper installed or if a racing profile is wanted, the front bumper can be removed and the skid plate by itself can be run as a light-weight alternative bumper / skid plate that shreds 27 grams (almost a full ounce) of weight from the front end of the truck. Once the race is over, reinstall the bumper and full bash protection is once again available!

Our Traxxas Slash front bumper design completely eliminates the stock chassis-to-bumper support ring and the 5 screws holding the support ring in place. Additionally, the RPM version uses a thicker skid design (more than 60% thicker than the stock skid!) to supply the cushioning resistance a basher-proof bumper needs. Even though our thicker, more stout front bumper and skid plate is significantly stronger and more beefy than stock, it still falls in at a weight that is slightly less than the stock front bumper*. So even if the racer wants to run a full RPM front bumper and skid plate, they won’t have to worry about adding unwanted weight. To help improve overall durability, our skid rail design is wider than stock, which perfectly matches the design of our front and rear Slash skid plates.

The RPM front bumper and skid plate for the Traxxas Slash is available in three color options: black on black, blue on blue or a chrome bumper on a gray skid plate. We’re so confident in the strength and durability of these new bumpers that they too come with our unbeatable factory warranty protection.

*Our weight comparison is based on the weight of the stock Traxxas bumper along with the weight of the support ring and hardware (all of which is permanently removed once the RPM bumper / skid plate is installed).

Rear Bumper
After releasing our front bumper for the Traxxas Slash, we immediately started receiving customer requests for an RPM rear bumper. In typical RPM fashion, we don’t just make replacement parts; we make the best replacement parts possible! So what sets the RPM rear bumper above all else? We started with our incredibly durable materials and created a bumper that is based off of current full-sized Short Course and Baja style rear bumpers. Full-sized rear bumpers are wide and flat and our scale version is exactly that, for the ultimate in rear-end protection. RPM rear bumpers will stop most rear impacts from affecting the truck in any negative way.

Additionally, RPM rear bumpers for the Traxxas Slash weigh in at a full 9 grams (18%) lighter than the stock version! Lighter is always faster.

What more could we do to make these things incredibly realistic? How about mounting points for mud flaps? That’s right; these bumpers come stock with mounting positions for RPM Mud Flaps (#81012 - available separately). Now the Slash owner can run mud flaps for ultra-realistic good looks.


RPM rear bumpers for the Traxxas Slash are available in three popular color options - black, blue and chrome. RPM rear bumpers are sold with all necessary mounting hardware and complete mounting instructions.



Tech Notes: RPM highly recommends the use of an RPM rear bumper mount (#80902 or #80905) for full rear-end crash and bash-proof protection.
