RPM Front Bumper Skid Plate & Chassis Brace Set (Black) (SC10)
RPM70902
RPM's unique front bumper system for the Associated SC10 2wd. Is designed with two primary purposes – first and foremost is durability while second, it has to look good doing it! RPM's goals have been met with an overwhelming success.
RPM's front bumper system is designed in three pieces. The most critical piece is our unique chassis brace. This brace bolts to the bottom of the chassis using existing holes to help reduce the possibility of chassis breakage through frontal impacts. RPM achieve this by using 6 mounting points – both servo mounting screw holes and all four bulkhead screw holes. By tying in all 6 locations with a stout, molded nylon plate, RPM create a perfect foundation for the RPM front skid plate.
Notes:
– built in chassis brace for extra chassis protection
– fits all versions of the Associated SC10 (SC10, SC10.2, etc.)
– does not fit the SC10GT or GT2)

The new RPM front skid plate ties into the same four bulkhead screw holes as the chassis brace but we went a step further and added two extra skid plate mounting holes to help disperse frontal impact energy over a larger surface area. This design protects the front bulkhead much better than the stock bumper. Additionally, we’ve eliminated the stock front bumper loop that ties into the front shock tower. By eliminating that piece, it allows the front bumper much more room to absorb impacts while transferring zero impact energy into the fragile front shock tower. The massive front curve of the skid plate does two things – creates a progressive impact zone that steadily absorbs more and more impact energy as the bumper compresses. The curvature also creates a great transitioning surface for those less than stellar landings or unexpected obstacles that “pop up” in front of the truck.
