Product Description
RPM 73172 Front Bumper & Skid Plate (Ford Raptor Bodies), Losi Baja Rey
The RPM Losi Baja Rey Front Bumper & Skid Plate is designed to work with the Ford Raptor body from Losi. RPM has incorporated all of the key design features from the original RPM Baja Rey Bumper / skid plate, and added a few improvements.
A key improvement moved the skid plate from between the chassis plate and differential to below the aluminum chassis plate. This move solved a couple of problems. First, the aluminum chassis plate now has some serious RPM skid protection where it had none before. Next, and more importantly, it allowed RPM the freedom to create a flex zone on the skid plate that would allow more impact absorption in impact situations, ultimately saving you from costly repairs.
RPM redesigned the bumper as well, creating an additional flex zone that allows the bumper to compress under extreme impacts, yet return back to its original shape once the impact energy has dissipated. This flex zone protects the more fragile front differential and chassis plate since the bumper now absorbs the impact instead of transferring that energy into the chassis. RPM also made the bumper thicker than stock, meaning it can take more impacts over the entire width of the bumper without failing.
The RPM bumper for the Losi Baja Rey is designed and produced in the USA and built from RPM's nearly indestructible blend of engineering grade nylons.
