1979 K5 Blazer Scale and Trail
A Stunning Achievement in Scale Detail and Realism
Introduced in 1969, the Chevrolet Blazer was General Motors’ two-door entry into the booming sport utility market. Its shorter wheelbase and capable suspension instantly made it a favorite in the 4X4 world, earning the love of enthusiasts and collectors. Traxxas honors the rich history of the Blazer with this beautifully detailed reproduction of the 1979 K5 Blazer built on the renowned TRX-4 chassis. Outfitted with replica Rally wheels, a highly detailed chrome grill, and a full complement of scale details, the TRX-4 Blazer combines the iconic style of the Blazer with toughness and technology that could only come from Traxxas.
Clipless Body Mounting
New to TRX-4 79′ Chevrolet K5 Blazer, clipless body mounting combines clean flowing lines with secure latching convenience. TRX-4 K5 Blazer’s hidden latches hold tight on the trail no matter how intense the action gets, but release in just seconds to access the chassis.
The Power of Portals
Portal axles lift the truck at the wheels for huge center pumpkin ground clearance. In order to achieve the same clearance with straight axles, your tires would have to be over an inch taller than the tires on TRX-4 K5 Blazer.
Torque Twist Eliminated
The portal axles use gear reduction at the wheels to virtually eliminate torque twist. The Titan 550 motor's torque translates into straight, powerful, forward motion, rather than wasted energy twisting your rig right off the rocks.
Innovative Chassis Design
Traxxas TRX-4 Blazer instantly obsoletes the status quo with greatly expanded features, versatility, and capability. Performance and technology combine in a revolutionary new chassis that looks as good as it performs.
Features
Rigid Steel Frame
A heavy-duty formed-steel ladder frame with molded cross members creates an extremely rigid backbone. You'll feel the difference on trails when navigating technical terrain.
Remote Locking Differentials
Traxxas allows you to lock and unlock both the front and rear differentials remotely from your transmitter. New sleeved micro cables control the differential action for scale appearance, without limiting suspension articulation.
GTS Aluminum Shocks
Oil-filled coil-over GTS shocks deliver silky-smooth damping performance and feature threaded aluminum shock bodies for easy ride height adjustments. The convincing scale realism looks great and they perform even better.
High/Low Range Transmission
When the going gets tough, shift into low range for incredible 4WD pulling torque. Shift into high range for blasting down the trail. The TRX-4 Blazer adapts to any situation or driving style.
TQi Radio System with Cruise Control
The Traxxas TQi features our exclusive cruise control for long-distance treks. Set your speed using the transmitter and then use the multi-function knob to fine-tune it faster or slower to match precisely the pace of your caravan of trail explorers.
Waterproof Electronics
TRX-4 is fully waterproof, not "splash resistant". There is a big difference. Traxxas' patented innovation gives you the freedom to tackle creeks, snow, and mud without worrying about water in your electronics.
Scale Details
TRX-4 K5 Blazer is a masterwork of scale detail. Bright chrome decal trim frames the stunning two-tone paint and clear windows. The injection molded grille, bumpers, wipers, and door handles are chromed for maximum visual impact. Even the replica Rally wheels are accurate down to the smallest detail.
