Default Anyone put a different body on a Beast II chassis?

Granted the Beast II has charming looks to begin with, but what if I wanted to make it look like an American military deuce-and-a-half? Since I'm not an artistic fabricator, I'm looking for more of a bolt-on solution with minor modifications.

Thanks for any sound ideas.

Check out Cross RC's HC4/HC6 cabs. CROSS-RC.COM

Robert Mazza from Hobbytown USA (Oshkosh) should be able to set you up, if you're interested.

He's on FaceBook ( hangs out in the Cross RC Builders group,) and hobby_deals on Ebay.

Fitment would be up to you.

Thanks Bl-air. the HC cab is really what I'm after. No idea if it would fit on the Beast chassis. Maybe I'll get one and find out the hard way.

No, haven't looked further. Turns out my wife gave me an Axial SCX 10.2 for Christmas so have been spending my time and money on that project.

The Tamiya Bullhead body fits pretty well.

Ill be mounting this on my beast 2 hopefully fairly soon. It’s a cross hc4/hc6 cab with a custom made bed. Also the frame was cut to mount the stock bumper.

I’ll have a bunch of spare beast 2 parts after parts are moved over but I want to change some things during the swap

I actually almost didn’t buy it as I thought it wasn’t really worth what they were asking, then I checked the price for just the cab...
