Hard to tell from the tiny pictures, but it looks like this body is pretty small for the SCX10 chassis. If you want to stay with this body, you might be better off finding a narrower bumper. If you need to raise te bumper up higher, I have made my own brackets in the past so that may be an option. You might be able to make something work out of L- brackets if you don't have the ability or tools to make your own bracket. If you can resize your pictures, more people will likely be able to offer suggestions.

You can use Photobucket. Copy and Paste the IMG code into the reply window on RCC to share your projects. "thumbsup"



It looks like you bought a 1/12th or 1/16th scale body rather than a 1/10th scale.

Yeah there isn't really a way to make that look right on an scx10. If you are set on running that body get a losi mini crawler or if money is tight the exceed maxstone16 sells for $80 rtr and would make a good donor for axles and tranny. Really everything but the chassis should work for you. Its not as good as the losi but for a little scaler it works ok

For the SCX-10 you need to use monster truck sized bodies, 1/10th scale ones are too small.
