TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST Aluminium Upper Chassis Plate SST014 by GPM  [SST014]

Aluminium upper chassis replacement

This aluminium upper chassis plate is a direct replacement designed for TRAXXAS 1/18 LaTrax SST models, supplied as a single piece under part number SST014. It serves as a metal option to the stock upper plate for hobbyists focused on tuning and routine maintenance.

Installation notes: this panel fits in the same location as the factory upper plate on the 1/18 LaTrax SST chassis. Fitting requires basic disassembly of the body and upper chassis fasteners, reuse of existing hardware where appropriate, and standard tools such as a hex driver.

Tuning impact: swapping in an aluminium upper plate alters stiffness distribution and chassis feedback during setup changes, making it useful when testing different suspension parts, adjusting weight distribution, or fine tuning handling balance.

For builders wanting a metal upper panel option for the LaTrax SST, the GPM SST014 provides a simple upgrade for tuning and maintenance; check fit and fasteners before final assembly.
