Traxxas Summit – Front and Rear Bumpers

I’ve had my Traxxas Summit for about 3 months now and it’s a great truck.  Our house is up on a hill and I’ve there is a large hill / side yard that we run our trucks around on.  It’s been snow covered for awhile and the Summit has been great and tearing it up out there.

Because of it’s size and weight it is really easy to flip the truck when jumping by just letting off the accelerator.  The front and rear bumpers are mounted on an oval ring that is attached to the frame.  So it goes Bumper –> Oval Ring –> Frame.  If you own or are thinking about getting a Summit I would suggest you buy a couple of spares.  I’ve already busted both the front and the back oval rings.  The parts are only about $8.00 so put a couple in your gear box; it will only be a matter of time.
