Improve chassis control with XRAY 351160 side guards

Produced in rigid carbon fibre, the XRAY 351160 chassis side guards are intended to stabilise the vehicle while permitting the controlled torsional flex that boosts traction. They are compatible with XB8, XB8E, XT8 and XT8E models from 2016 onwards and give added protection to the chassis sides from impacts and dirt ingress.

Benefits of carbon fibre panels

  • Reduced weight: Carbon fibre lowers mass relative to many traditional composites, helping acceleration and steering response.
  • Improved stability: Greater longitudinal stiffness curbs unwanted chassis movement for steadier handling.
  • Controlled flex: The guards allow torsional movement where it aids grip, preserving traction in demanding corners.

Fitment details and advice

The XRAY 351160 set includes both left and right side guards and is designed to mount cleanly to the chassis plate of the stated models. Fitting is straightforward for model builders familiar with the XB8 family and normally requires no chassis alterations.
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.

Are these compatible with pre-2016 shells?

They are designed for XB8 and XT8 platforms from 2016 onwards, so earlier shells may not align with the mounting points without modification.

Will they withstand regular club use?

Yes, carbon fibre offers strong impact resistance, though repeated heavy strikes should be inspected for hairline damage.

Do they need special cleaning?

A simple wipe with a damp cloth to remove grit is usually enough; avoid aggressive solvents that can affect bonded areas or finishes.
