You'll have to bolt the two halves together, the bed to the cab. Then just drill holes in the right spot for the body posts. Otherwise, it lines up almost perfectly, if not spot on.

They fit nice as in wheelbase but, they are a narrow body. The wheels will stick out almost completly past the wheel wells.

Fits fine for me:

This pic shows how far the tires stick out from the wheelwells:

Like I said, sticks amost all the way out of the fender well. Not saying its a bad thing. Some people don't like that but, with the body the scx10 looks more scale (tire size to body higth).

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

1.9 tires with this body are about the equivelent to the look of 44" - 48" tires on the 1:1 F350s.

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

How did you mount the F350 body? I dont see any posts sticking out and I like that.

Thanks everybody the guy at my hobby shop is making bank on me. Now time to order my F350 body set cause I've butchered my honcho to death and beyond it's starting to look like it survived a knife fight

For the 2 that posted pics, what class are they considered?

That's the problem with a lot of bodies. I have a jk with 4.2 tsl's which would be 42" in 1:1 and the are barley up to the window from the bottom of the door. Its not even close to scale. They look like they would be 31's at most in 1:1 compared to the body.

Are you running the dingo or honcho scx10

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

I'm not sure.

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

For the front, I cut and sanded the knob on the top of the body posts flat at the widest part and then gorilla glued a piece of flat plastic to the top of them. Then I put velcro on them. For the rear, I didn't use body posts, I just gorilla glued a piece of flat plastic to the top of the shock hoop where the post is supposed to go, then put velcro on that flat piece of plastic. Then just put strips of velcro on the underside of the body where you want it to attach. That holds the body on great.

I have no idea either cause I'm not a scaler nerd, I mean competitor. I'd guess class 1, but it may fall into class 2 for some reason I'm unaware of.

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

I'd say Class 2 since the tires are taller than 4.19" and they're sticking almost all the way past the fenders. Class 1 needs to have at least 1/2 the tread covered. I don't compete, but I read the rules :flipoff:

Re: Scx10 going F350?
 

Waste of time, rules are made to be broken. And scaler comps seem silly.
