Traxxas Stability Management TSM® works behind the scenes to help harness X-Maxx’s brutal power for maximum acceleration and ultimate control. TSM works behind the scenes, reducing oversteer to avoid spinouts without ever limiting power output.
X-Maxx’s rugged and direct driveline reduces rotational mass and delivers superior durability. The driveline lies completely shielded inside the chassis for worry-free running, safe from rocks and other debris.
The cast alloy Torque-Biasing Center Drive improves driveline durability and controls front-to-rear power distribution for mind-bending four-wheel-drive acceleration. It’s tuned to allow instant, wheels-up punch off the line and seamless, virtually invisible operation at speed.
Pioneered by X-Maxx, this revolutionary Traxxas innovation flips X-Maxx back onto its wheels after a roll over. In most situations, the fun does not have to stop just to rescue an upside-down truck.
Water? Mud? Snow? X-Maxx says, “Bring it on!” Traxxas was first to offer patented innovative waterproofing solutions to extend your fun into environments that were previously off limits to lesser trucks.
X-Maxx uses a heavy-duty body latching system that secures the body to the chassis firmly and easily. With intense 8s power on tap, X-Maxx spends a lot of time on two wheels. Tough body reinforcements add extra protection during rollovers or when self-righting.
Traxxas engineers paid special attention to make sure the touch points on X-Maxx are easy to use. The snap-lock battery retainers are integrated into the chassis and keep a firm, secure grip on the batteries.

At the end of the day, size always wins. X-Maxx plows over obstacles and muscles through extreme terrain that leaves lesser trucks stranded. Mammoth 8-inch-tall tires, long-arm suspension, and huge ground clearance dwarf the surroundings for virtually unstoppable monster truck fun.
At Traxxas, too much power is never enough! The durability of the VXL-8s™ is matched only by the sheer ferocity of its 8s 30+ volt LiPo muscle. The speed-tuned 1200XL Big Block motor propels X-Maxx with brutal authority and exacting quickness that warps your senses. No matter what you have driven in the past, nothing will prepare you for X-Maxx.
X-Maxx puts its massive power to the ground through an all-metal 8s driveline backed by the revolutionary Cush Drive® system, high-strength extruded aluminum center shaft, and our strongest steel driveshafts ever. The Torque-Biasing Center Drive improves driveline durability and drives huge steel 4-gear differentials.
X-Maxx’s belted Sledgehammer tires deliver game-changing stability and control whether you’re slinging mud or setting speed records. The wide, open-block tread design won’t clog up with dirt or debris and the lightweight belting maintains the tire’s shape for a larger contact patch, more grip, and responsive handling at any speed.
The interlocking modular chassis design keeps the motor and the gear drive together as a unit to virtually eliminate gear-crunching chassis flex. Additionally, the design provides easy access to critical components, making any needed maintenance or repairs a snap to perform.
X-Maxx’s four enormous high-performance oil-filled GTX™ aluminum shocks smooth out the roughest terrain for the super-plush ride that made Maxx® trucks famous. The large oil volume dissipates heat for all-day shredding while an integrated wiper seal keeps the shafts clean, reducing seal wear for long life.
X-Maxx’s shock towers introduce an exclusive Traxxas look that offers rigid, triangulated structure and an authentic off-road look that fills in the wheel openings of the truck. They also serve as a convenient carry handles and provide level supports for the X-Maxx when placed upside down for cleaning.
The motor mount cradles the motor so it can’t flex on the mount. Gear mesh is held firmly in place by keyed pins so there’s no need for tricky adjustments. Eliminating flex means longer gear life, even in the most punishing conditions. The dual-fan assembly helps cool the motor for extended run times and maximum fun.
Achieving X-Maxx’s huge suspension travel, tight turning circle, and incredible strength required hundreds of hours of modeling, development, and testing to package all that capability in these sophisticated components. Exciting visual form follows unsurpassed function and performance.
Waterproofing our models has never been an afterthought at Traxxas. Patented Traxxas innovation seals out the water so that your playground doesn’t end when the fun involves water, snow, and mud. Dirty truck? Just hose it off. The box allows fast radio access without removal.
X-Maxx uses double shear connections when the mission requires incredible strength. Suspension hinge points, shock mounting, and even the steering servo output shaft are engineered to redefine Traxxas Tough. Captured, high-strength steel suspension pins are used throughout and will never unscrew or “back out”.
X-Maxx gets its unmatched steering authority from the powerful 2085 servo. The quick steering and tight turning circle, combined with advanced suspension geometry, gives X-Maxx nimbleness and control that you might not expect from such a large vehicle.
X-Maxx is equipped with an energy-absorbing impact cushion behind the front bumper to help soften the blows and make X-Maxx even more durable in demanding situations—even the unexpected ones.
Traxxas armed X-Maxx with our strongest driveshafts to harness the twisting power of the motor’s extreme torque. This rugged design maximizes suspension travel, steering angles, and overall durability. The differential outputs are splined for incredible strength, and they center bolt to the differential for easy cleaning and service. Splined wheel hexes eliminate axle pins that require through holes that create a weak point in shafts.
Conventional slipper clutches could not withstand X-Maxx’s monster torque loads. Instead, our engineers adapted the revolutionary Cush Drive system from the 100 mph XO-1 Supercar and strengthened it with a steel spur gear. Instead of slipping, the Cush Drive sends pure uninterrupted power straight to the Torque-Biasing Center Drive for unimaginable acceleration.
The tough aluminum center driveshaft carries the power to the front and rear differentials. Splined drives are used throughout for precise engagement, incredible strength, and smooth running.
X-Maxx’s differentials feature our largest module steel ring and pinion gears ever to handle the rigors of challenging off-road situations. The differentials are sealed and filled with heavyweight oil, which gives the feel of limited-slip differentials. What the driver feels is confidence as X-Maxx’s power slides through turns with massive roost and total control.
X-Maxx’s features full contact sealed bearings in outboard locations to keep out the grime and grit. Less downtime for cleaning and maintaining bearings equals more run time for X-Maxx’s.
The Torque-Biasing Center Drive absorbs shocks to improve driveline durability. The Center Drive also distributes power to all four wheels for mind-bending four-wheel-drive acceleration without the side effects of a typical center differential. Center differentials allow tires in the air to balloon uncontrollably, while the Torque-Biasing Center Drive allows wheelies off the line with seamless power distributed to all four wheels.
