The key feature on the Baja Monster Truck is its suspension. The truck has 2 swing arms and each swing arm is connected to its own shock that gives it suspension. I built this truck to be jumped and that's exactly what I did. After many test runs and design changes I’ve made the frame and body very strong.
The Baja Monster Truck has bumpers front and back that are built into the frame which protects the body from impacts into things like tables or walls. All the force that goes into the bumpers and shocks get directed into the holes on the frame rails and not into where the body is mounted, making the truck even stronger.
The frame design allows various bodies to be put on it, this truck body is built on its own plate making it sturdy even separate from the frame. Since the body is on its own plate, different bodies are very easy to switch without breaking or taking anything apart.
With the strength and simplicity of the Baja Monster Truck I think it would be a great kit for all ages.
