What this part does

This XRAY 356170 carbon battery backstop is an accessory for GTXE 2027 flat-chassis configurations, CNC-machined from carbon fibre for consistent dimensions and a stiff, compact profile. It is intended for both front and rear battery mounting positions to keep packs secure under dynamic loads.

The backstop's role is purely mechanical retention and setup assistance: it helps lock the battery into a repeatable position while contributing minimal additional thickness to the chassis stack, supporting reliable tuning and weight distribution checks.

Fitting is simple for those experienced with GTXE chassis parts: it uses the standard battery mounting points and usually reuses the original screws. Additional mounting hardware is not supplied unless noted in the part listing.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Is this compatible with earlier GTXE kits that have different battery layouts?

Compatibility is stated as GTXE 2027; measure the mounting hole pattern and compare it to earlier GTXE kits before fitting to avoid misfit or interference.

Do I need new screws when installing this backstop?

Most installations will reuse the chassis' existing battery screws. Only if the original fasteners are worn or a modification has been made will replacement hardware be necessary.

Could this affect fine chassis balance during setup?

Because it is a stiff and low-profile component, any impact on chassis balance is typically minor. Evaluate changes as part of your full setup routine to confirm handling effects.

What signs indicate the backstop should be replaced?

Inspect for surface cracks, delamination, or dimensional distortion after impacts. Replace the backstop if any structural damage appears to ensure safe, secure battery mounting.
