TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S body shell latch by GPM TXM201R  [TXM201R]

Rear body shell latch for X‑MAXX

This GPM TXM201R rear body shell latch is an aftermarket RC-scale accessory developed for TRAXXAS X-MAXX platforms to improve rear shell retention. The part uses 7075 alloy and a dedicated locking geometry to reduce the risk of the rear shell coming loose during 360° rotation, heavy impacts, or hard landings. It is designed for the vehicle's rear body-shell position and replaces the stock rear locker.

The latch assembly is supplied with the mounting hardware needed for installation: rear body shell piece, a set of screws including Grade 12.9 cap head and flat head screws, a 3.0 lock nut and a spring. The design focuses on a stable mechanical lock rather than changes to the body shell itself, so it integrates with existing shell mounting points on compatible X‑MAXX models.

For hobbyists looking to secure the rear shell on high-impact runs, this 7075 alloy latch offers a compact, hardware-based upgrade that replaces the stock rear locker and aims to keep the shell attached through hard landings and rotations.
