This aluminium upper chassis plate is supplied as a single replacement panel for TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST models and is identified by model SST014. It provides a durable alternative to the standard upper plate for enthusiasts working on tuning or servicing their model.
Practical fitting tips: the panel mounts where the original upper plate does on the 1/18 LaTrax SST chassis. You will need to remove the body and upper fasteners, then transfer suitable screws from the original assembly. A hex driver and basic hand tools are all that is normally required.
Effect on setup: installing an aluminium upper plate changes how stiffness is distributed across the chassis and influences the feedback felt during setup changes, which can be valuable when testing suspension options or balancing vehicle weight.
For hobbyists wanting a metal upper panel for the LaTrax SST, the GPM SST014 is a straightforward upgrade for tuning and maintenance; always check fit and fastener compatibility before completing the build.
