MAXTRAX XTREME - the world's best 4WD recovery tracks just got better!
Multi-award-winning MAXTRAX XTREME is the most advanced 4WD recovery track ever created, featuring 88 replaceable hard-anodised alloy teeth moulded into a heavy-duty, super-tough, engineering-grade reinforced Nylon recovery track. MAXTRAX XTREME is designed and manufactured for professional use based on direct feedback from some of the world's most elite military units, off-road racing champions, certified 4WD driver trainers and globe-trotting expedition leaders as a mission-critical recovery track for a wide range of scenarios where time is of the essence and aggressive driving and excessive wheel spin is often unavoidable, including active combat situations, timed motorsport competitions and remote area expeditions.
MAXTRAX XTREME is manufactured in Australia using our secret recipe; a heavy-duty, super-tough, engineering-grade reinforced Nylon; the same amazing material that weve made MAXTRAX MKII from for almost a decade. The manufacturing process involves a custom jig attached to a robot arm inserting the 88 alloy teeth in the correct orientation into special sockets in the injection mould, then over-moulding them into the body of the track, ensuring that the Nylon material conforms closely to the thread of each tooth for a super-secure fit, virtually eliminating the risk of a tooth unwinding from the body of the track. All 88 alloy teeth are hard-anodised to protect against corrosion in harsh, saltwater or muddy environments.
As the alloy is significantly harder and more durable than the rubber compound found in tyres and also more resistant to wear from a spinning tyre than any polymer available today, you can expect faster, more secure engagement with the tyre's tread pattern, which not only makes MAXTRAX XTREME the most-durable recovery track on the market, but also the fastest.
The carton includes 2 MAXTRAX and 2 orange telltale leashes (so you can find your MAXTRAX when they're buried).
MAXTRAX XTREME is also easily repairable in the field. If a tooth gets damaged, simply flip the board over and use a T-50 Torx bit to remove and replace the damaged tooth. MAXTRAX XTREME uses a proprietary and patent-pending thread & bliplock system to ensure secure physical engagement of a new tooth with its recess after replacement. Replacement teeth and a custom T-head tool which also works with our mounting pins are available for purchase here.
MAXTRAX XTREME will nest with MAXTRAX MKII recovery tracks, (although there is a slightly larger space between the tracks due to the design of the underside of the MAXTRAX XTREME).
Mounting pins designed exclusively for the MAXTRAX XTREME are available, including a hybrid mounting pin designed for those adding a set of MAXTRAX XTREME to the top of their current MKII recovery tracks.
MAXTRAX XTREME is also compatible with MAXTRAX mini and our fixing and linking kit to create a portable roadway.

FAQ's
Will a Clevershade be a good fit for my vehicle?
Yes! With eight models to choose from we’re almost certain we have an awning that will suit your vehicle. We have awnings perfect for everything from a three-door Jimny to a fully built US Truck! We know you want to get it right, so feel free to contact our team if you’d like some assistance finding the best product for your setup.
What brackets do I need?
Our Deluxe model awnings are all offered with universal L-shape brackets that are easy to install on most roof racks. The brackets are made from 316 stainless steel and are height adjustable. Some third party brackets will also be compatible, so please contact us if you’d like to check.
The unique design of the Ultra-Lite means it requires a more specific fitment kit. We currently offer fitment kits to suit the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform (series 4, 5, 6), Front Runner Slimline II, Yakima LNL, and the ARB Base Rack. We also have an option to fit Rhino Rack HD feet.
Is a Clevershade easy to install?
In most cases, yes! The Deluxe awning universal brackets are so simple it often surprises customers. You can check out the instructions here. The Ultra-Lite fitment is a bit more technical, but we have instructions to assist you specific to the relevant roof rack. If you’d like more information on Ultra-Lite installation for your particular roof rack, get in touch and our team will be happy to help!
Do you offer install services?
Yes, we do. If you’d like your Clevershade installed by us in our Gold Coast workshop, please get in touch to arrange an appointment. We can also recommend installers in other states if required.
Is the awning waterproof?
We manufacture our awnings using a waterproof canvas. Our slick awning design also means its tautness aids water run-off. Check out the video here.
Do I need to use legs or ropes with a Clevershade?
All Clevershade awnings are true freestanding awnings, which means we don’t manufacture or sell poles or ropes. Clevershade awnings have all been wind tested and rated to give you a guide on what the awning can withstand. Of course everything has a breaking point (ours is just higher than most others) so we include eyelets on the end of each arm in case you do want to use poles or ropes in certain conditions. We recommend Tiegear products.
Why are your awnings lighter than other freestanding awnings?
Design and materials are the two main reasons our awnings are the lightest of their type on the market. The canvas we use is made just for us, and forms part of the structure of the awning itself. This means we’re not purely reliant on the arms for strength so we can use slimmer, lighter weight arms.
The unique design of the Ultra-Lite range does away with the backbone built into most traditional awnings, which saves even more weight.
Can the awning be repaired if I break it?
Yes, most parts of the awning are replaceable, so if you come unstuck, there’s no need to throw your awning away! Get in touch and we’ll be able to assist you with parts and repair service.
Do you have a wall kit available?
Our Deluxe 270 awning is wall kit compatible and single walls or an entire kit are available for purchase. The Ultra-Lite range has been designed as a pure sun shade, so hasn’t been designed with a wall kit in mind.
Do your awnings have lights built in?
The Deluxe range has a 600mm three colour light built in as standard with each awning. The Ultra-Lite doesn’t have a built-in light because we’ve designed it to be as lightweight as possible.
What is the warranty?
All Clevershade awnings have a one year warranty, with a five year guarantee on the canopy stitching.
