| Scale Bodies for Micro Crawler
New to here but have some ideas to share. All you guys hunting scale bodies for the Micro Crawler should look toward the Radio Shack X-Mods trucks. they had a F-150, Nissan Titan, and a Hummer, also had body kits for them to change appearence ( flares, bedrails,bedcovers,bumpers,rollbars and so fourth) also the spring sets for them work on the Micro-t so it's possible they'll work on them to(shorter than stock). Just thought I would pass this along.

| Quite a few have already done this. I would think the Kysho mini Z overland bodies would work as well As far as xmod bodies I have seen on the losi McRC, F-150,Nissan,and the hummer The good thing about going this way is its quick I'm sure Not everyone feels like painting a body |

| Local Radio Shack
Check at some of your local Radio Shacks for the bodies, some of them have some extras in stock for sell, probably have to ask a salesperson. also check E-Bay, alot of stuff on there.

The xmods truck bodies look a little small on the micros dont they? I mean in order to look scale the body should be more like a 20th scale.. I have a box of micro bodies Hummers, Jeeps, Chevys, Fords.. etc.. from back in the day when I built x-trucks I prolly post a few in the BST here and over on Scale4x4.

more like a scale trail truck. I think a 1/24 body done right will just look like a truck with bigger tires or if you cut it right would be a much better rock crawler | |
