| Body positioning
Hey all Just busy prepping my new body from my Rubicon kit and am a little unsure about the optimal position for the body mounts. The rear ones look the most tricky as they seem to want to come through the straps on the tool box behind the rears seat. Is this right? Also should the body be clear of the front bumper and sit behind it once mounted? Please see my attached pics Any advice would be appreciated. Last edited by gtione; 05-05-2013 at 11:14 AM. |

I would be interested in seeing where you're rear mounts are positioned.

Colour scheme looks good...the black on the hood works well.

You'd think axial could mold a little dot into the lexan, make it a no-brainer on where to ream... Oh well, makes it interesting. Looks great op! Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk 2 |

| To true that would have been a big help. The other issue is with the roof. It needs four 2mm screws which I have no idea how to position now that I have painted the roof.

| Re: Body positioning for a painted surface and mounting some people use grease on the body posts or paint the top of the body posts and it leaves a mark on the inside of body..
