Overview
Stiffen up the front of your Traxxas Maxx 1/10 with the Hot Racing Aluminum Front Upper Chassis Brace. CNC-machined from aluminum and finished in striking black-and-blue anodizing with secondarily-processed beveled edges, this front upper brace replaces the flexy plastic Traxxas TRA8921 component with a far more rigid, race-grade alternative.
The factory plastic upper chassis brace flexes under bashing loads, allowing the chassis to twist and compromising suspension geometry. This aluminum upgrade eliminates that flex completely, restoring the precise, consistent handling the Maxx is capable of when fully upgraded.
