Traxxas TRX82246-4 – TRX-4 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT Clipless
Originally introduced in 1966 as a 4×4 compact SUV, the Ford Bronco matured as a full-size truck in the late 1970s, cementing its status as a rugged off-roader. Traxxas honors the classic 1979 Ford Bronco with this beautifully detailed and faithful reproduction mounted on the incredibly capable TRX-4 chassis. From the chrome wheels and bumpers to the gorgeous Sunset or red graphics, the TRX-4 recaptures the Bronco’s iconic era with the toughness and technology that could only come from Traxxas.
New Clipless Body Mounting
New to TRX-4 79′ Ford Bronco, clipless body mounting combines clean flowing lines with secure latching convenience. TRX-4 Ford Bronco’s hidden latches hold tight on the trail no matter how intense the action gets, but release in just seconds to access the chassis.
