I have not tried that yet, but Element did add molded in lines on each fender to use as a guide to trim them for different bodies.

damn it I knew I forgot something in the order, the wheel arch on the JP1 body are high thought I'm not sure if they would have played well together anyhow, may have to homebrew some.

Thats coming up this weekend. Ive cut out the front inners, and rough trimmed the body. Need to set posts in and final trim the body, then see what the fenders need. The Comanche body is narrow, sliders are already way in.

i need to see if i can move the sliders forward on the rails about 3/4". maybe drill new holes? kinda don't want to swiss cheese my frame though.

still trying to decide if i want to run the RTR body (with knight's dodge grill and axial honcho cage) or go for the truggy forduro…?

I just did that last night and posted up in my build thread, it might be closer to 1/2"-5/8", only holes that needed drilling were on the side trays, none in the frame

Another thing will be the inner fenders, mounts to the sliders, might still fit with a redrill?

Good point Mike, I just measured how much I moved my side trays and sliders (using the existing holes linked above) and its 13mm or about a 1/2".

Looking at the inner fenders there is a flat spot where they mount and it looks to be just big enough to poke a few more holes still on this flat spot.

LIKE!

thanks fellas. Ideally I would like to swap between the bodies, I guess would be ideal for me if I cant make up my mind haha

Here is my 46 Power Wagon painted and mounted. This body really lends itself to this chassis!

Yeah, that didn't work out, lol.

Here's my Pro-Line Toyota SR-5 (honcho)

[durok]

Looks great!

I'll bet the Mog was too short...

I've always liked the Honcho front bumper, as well.

Well, for the second kit in a row I didn't use the Power Wagon body. It's 100% going on my SCX10ii.

I ended up going with the 1966 F100 cab with a Trail Honcho cage.

I, too was thinking of going with the Power Wagon body, but I can't use full size batteries with such a narrow cab. The cab measures 5.75 according to Proline... And the tray is a hair wider than that. Then the cables stick out of the battery, making it even wider. I'm not gonna buy shorty packs just because I want to run a particular body at this point! Got way too many packs already... That body looks great, though.
