| Ty's Trail Trekker Commander
I snagged a NIB TT last week and I also found the elusive Commander body I've been searching for for a few months on theBay. The wheelbase of the TT is just a tick too long for the Commander, but I don't mind it too much. I cut the fenders and front bumper to gain the most clearance possible without totally compromising the "stock" look. Also came up with and awesome pin-less body mount system that is a nice fit and can be removed by pulling the body apart just a bit to release, pics of that later. Will get some more pictures soon, need to get my radio from work to take it for a test drive. |

Looks awesome Every time I decide to sell my Trekker, I think back to the out of town trips that there was no room for a 1/10 scale rig. They are great for that quick rc fix. |

Here's how I mounted the body. The front body posts go through two holes I drilled in the stock mount setup and the rear snaps onto that post with the screw sticking out. It's a nice stretch fit and stays on really well, plus comes off in about 2 seconds and not tiny pins to lose. Stock body goes right on without modifying anything. |

Thanks! I'm happy with how it performs as it is, my daughter loves driving it around too. Still looking for more things to do to it, just don't want to add a lot of weight to the body.
