body

I haven't worked with it in a while but I'm thinking of making a fiberglass mold of the body pieces and making carbon fiber parts. What does everyone thing about carbon fiber?

Hey guys. My MT arrives today. I have already bought the killswitch and the new servos. I am ready to buy a tuned pipe. My main concern is buying one that can be covered by the body (or as close to that as possible). I do not want a big side mount pipe sticking out, and I want to keep cutting...

All you guys that run Chimeras, know what a PITA it is to remove panels to just turn it on. In my case with the electric version, to charge my sons batteries. I thought if the screws were replaced with posts, pins could be used instead of screws. This makes removing the side panels much...

I emailed the guy at wooodster bodies and he said that the regular woodster body would fit the MT the best,but I forgot to tell him that I have the cpi pipe,is any one out there running this body on the MT with the cpi pipe

what can be done to strengthen the body?

Hey guys in my quest to find a new body, I FINALLY found a link where you can actually get the KM version. They seem to be pretty popular, or discontinued, for every place is always out of stock. Here's the link. On sale for $86 FREE shipping too...

Sudden turn of events today. I was out doing some fine carb tuning after installing the new 8k clutch, and I was running my XSC body. Well, I slid into an icy snow bank while drifting and blew off the right rear corner of the body! I mean it didn't even hit that hard and it wasn't THAT cold...

I have an XT and I also like to run an XSC body, but I have to change the height of the posts AND the direction they face. I'd spend too much time trying to figure out which post faced which way and what height each one should be to clear the exhaust cut out and rear wing mount. Here's my...

Fits GREAT! All I had to do was turn the body posts around for better body hole placement. The 1st pic I did pick up some smaller all terrian tires and wheels so no fender trimming was required. The 2nd pic I have 7" knobbies and would require only a little bit of trimming to the front only.

I picked up a sweet deal on an XT a few months back. The guy really has done some nice work and TONS of upgrades, including pressing copper sleeves over the differential outputs (where the dogbones slide into the differential housing) for added strength. I have also ordered the XSC body for my...

I looked on the site and I must have missed them. Does Redcat sell the body for the Chimera SR? I just need the 2 side panels also do they sell a all clear body for it so I can do my own custom paint job? If they don't any idea on a body reccomendation that I can order?

I'm not overly fond of Castle Creations right now after all the trouble with the XL series and a Mamba Monster nearly having me toss a RC8.2 in the garbage. My Hobbywing just went kaput and I found this as an options. Anybody run this yet? I have tried a few of the Trackstars in my 1/10...

This is a preview about our new body for... :D

Just a couple pics.....I put on some new shoes and love the way it looks. I'll post more when I get someone to take action shots. Thanks for looking!!! [/url]

OK you guys 2 years in this hobby and have never done any thing with a body! Until now, just got an XB-G from RCDAD and have been doing a little reading, my question is for the body mount holes are you using a reamer or are you drilling? Thanks

Happy thanksgiving everybody !!

What dimensions should I look for in an aftermarket body to get an idea if it will "fit"? Right now, I am looking at the Rovan T2000 Body with wing and stiffener kit, the black and white one. Curious if anyone else has tried that or knows if it would fit or would be able to suggest a VW bug...

Decided to give the FG body a try since Dave's had them on sale. I think it's a perfect fit. Just need to refit the front bumper.

Just like the title says, interested in a Clear Rampage TT Body.

based on what I saw with my MCD in the past, the MT version ( I had a buggy edition but with MT tires) seemed to have some sort of inner body guard to help keep crap out. I was thinking maybe I coudl do this with the TT body mounted inside and then mount the truck body. Thoughts? Sorry for...
