Im probably not the only one that does not like to have to keep taking the body off to start the truck, Im trying to think of a better solution...any ideas/tips? What about a buggy type body or something??

I am new to this forum, but i have a rampage xt for a couple of years now, Some options for you. I personally have a roto start installed o n my truck. It uses a troybilt starter bit in a cordless drill, with the pull start removed. It has a solid bar attached inside where the recoil used to sit. I do not like removing the body either. You could cut out a large sun roof panel and use a small piano hinge to re attach it and glue in a single pin / post to flip it open as needed. The troybilt starter package is up for sale at largescalerc.com for around $40. hope this helps.
