Inner fender options?
 
Ive found two so far, the ones straight from Element which are lexan for $23, and a 3d printed set on ebay for $44... (which granted, are way nicer but who knows how sturdy they are)

https://www.amainhobbies.com/element...c42132/p977632

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Inner-Fende...y/123934971829

1) Does anyone know of any other options for inner fenders?

2) Does anyone know if the lexan Element one can be used with any bodies besides the stock Element Sendero body?

Thanks in advance!

Small plastic tupperware bowls from the kitchen or some simple pieces of styrene cut and glued together.

I'm mechanically declined with it comes to fabricating stuff like that, lol.

I run the stock set on the wife’s Comanche body. Quite solid, easy to trim for fit as they have lines from front to back. I made two donuts to keep the front mount from tearing quite tough!

Got to say, while I don’t have the inner fenders, I do have some club5racing parts and they seem great quality. There are some on AliExpress and Banggood (or one of them) for about $35 from memory. Might be worth a look.

I am in the process of designed front fenders, I am guessing by the end of this weekend I will have them done and posted on Thingiverse.

@mike Thanks for the info and pics. You helped me out a lot when I was trying to magnet mount my body as well. :)

I’ve fitted the element inner fenders inside my axial c10 body. Don’t think I had to change to much. Think I added spacers in the back to get it up over the wheel arch in the back but about it. I’m sure you can make them work with any body. Just need to trim them.

I used the Element inner fenders with my JK body. They don't line up perfectly with the JK wheel wells, but it's good enough for a toy truck.

I just got a set of the element official ones. Might see if they fit under the proline 79 ford cab.
Maybe. That body has really high fender arches.

Well, here is what I have for the front. Keep in mind, this is custom built for the Injora Comanche body.

The peg goes in the body post hole, and is bolted on with the second bolt of the front chassis brace/bumper mount.
I have thought of making another version that would allow the body post to pass through it.

Great job chief!
My son has been nagging me to get back to working on the crawlers. Too much time nerding out on my outlaw pro haha
Maybe I will paint up my element fenders and see how they look under that proline 79 ford cab.

Thanks Scott but I utilize my body posts with a magnet mounting system so that would be no bueno unless the body posts went through. But please post a pic of your finished truck with them on please. ��

Re: Inner fender options?
 
@shinchu high fenders are my issue as well with trying the element ones. I trimmed mine kinda high to clear the wheel rub. I'm hoping the body doesn't "float" for lack of a better term above them.

Still fumbling around with getting the ford body mounted.
Interior tray pushes the body off at the battery. Need it to go as far forward as possible.
And the stock bumper looks like a duck bill on the ford. Worse than the stock body.
Gonna ditch it and try an origin plastic bumper.
THEN tackle inner fenders.

I broke down an ordered the Element ones. I'll post pics when it's all said and done.
