GPM Racing Aluminium Side Steps (Reticulated Pattern B) - 10pcs Set for Traxxas 1/10 TRX4 (TRX4014XB)

Precision aluminium side steps for TRX-4

Designed for TRAXXAS TRX-4 platforms, these precision aluminium side steps are supplied as a 10pcs kit including two CNC-cut side plates and eight stainless steel round head screws. The plates are CNC machined, anodized, and engraved with a reticulated (pattern B) texture to deliver repeatable surface contrast and durable scale appearance.

The mounting interface uses an elongated screw slot allowing controlled lateral adjustment so each plate can be positioned inward or outward during fitting. This slot-based method supports minor fitment tuning without bending or trimming the component, preserving alignment and finish quality.

Intended use is cosmetic enhancement and light contact protection: the parts provide a low-profile ledge to reduce brush abrasion on lower body edges while maintaining vehicle dynamics. They do not alter suspension geometry, steering response, or drivetrain operation.

Assembly recommendations: use the supplied 3×10 stainless steel round head screws, perform test fitting with the body shell in place, and tighten incrementally to avoid misalignment. If thread resistance occurs from surface finish, clean mating threads and apply steady torque to prevent thread damage to mounting points.

The TRX4014XB set is a precision-minded cosmetic upgrade for TRX-4 crawlers, combining CNC machining, anodized finish and an engraved reticulated surface for consistent appearance and fitment control.

What tolerances should I expect on the plates?

Plates are CNC cut to hobby-grade machining tolerances appropriate for scale fitment; use the slot to compensate small chassis or body variances during installation.

How does the slot affect repeatability?

The elongated slot allows controlled micro-adjustment so the same plate can be fine-tuned for consistent clearance across different shell offsets without modifying the part.

What maintenance improves longevity?

Keep the anodized surfaces clean, rinse off abrasive grit after runs, and inspect screw torque periodically to prevent loosening or wear at mounting interfaces.

Are the supplied fasteners specification matched?

The kit includes stainless steel 3×10 round head screws chosen for compatibility with standard TRX-4 mounting points; verify thread engagement and avoid overtorque to protect chassis threads. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
