The chassis is CNC-machined from high-quality Swiss 3mm 7075 T6 aluminum, and it is strategically machined in low-stress areas to make it as light that you can without affecting strength or rigidity. The framework is hardcoated at XRAYs own in-house completely robotic hardcoating line, ensuring a great hardcoated surface whenever.
Non-essential product below the engine, gas tank, and diffs ended up being removed to allow for the lightest fat and cheapest possible center of gravity. The downstop setscrew area happens to be significantly reinforced, and all sorts of screw holes on base of this framework are countersunk to give a really smooth framework underside without protruding screw minds. The XB808 chassis was entirely redesigned from the ground as much as offer a great foundation for XRAYs high-performance off-road racer. All-new weight distribution ended up being built-into the buggys design, with central keeping internal parts for improved side-to-side fat balance.
Note:
Swiss 7075 T6 is very rigid aluminum product and following the hardcoating process in infrequent cases some small cracks might occur including, around spaces or on sides in which tension in the material is highest. Those tiny cracks are an all natural effect and also have no negative impact on the performance, dependability, or lifespan regarding the item and thus are not regarded as being a defect.
Due the type of the aluminum material as well as the machining procedure, it's normal that the chassis may be slightly bent into the longitudinal direction.
