What body are you considering? If it is a a hard body you can use some of the molded in features as locators in conjunction with the Velcro. The molded screw boss' hang down can fit into a feature near the chassis. On two of my rigs with hard bodies, I shortened the screw boss features and attached a flat piece of lexan at a height just above the front chassis mounted servo, then used Velcro. A screw through a nylon cylinder acts as a locator and drops down between the servo and frame rail and keeps the body centered as the Velcro grabs.  Last edited by sweli; 05-01-2011 at 07:56 PM. |

| Question
So any one who has used the Axial frame set and the new bright hard body do you guys use 1.9 tires and rims or 2.2? I have the 2.2 wheels and tires on now and it looks ok but I would really like to use a more realistic tire like the swampers or the flat iron tires.
