SIGNATURE EASY-ACCESS MODULAR DESIGN

Contributing to the GRANITE 4X2 BOOST monster truck's unstoppable performance are a strong composite chassis; steering with more clearance for stones; a castellated slipper pad and slidiNg gear mesh; and rubber-shielded bearings throughout. Extended height dirt defenders limit the amount of dirt and debris that can get into the chassis tub.

MULTI-TERRAIN dBOOTS TIRES
